Ethereum Risks A Downtrend In The Face Of The $2,800 Barrier

The price of Ethereum (ETH) has fallen below the 21-day moving average line. Price analysis by Coinidol.com.

Ethereum price long-term analysis: ranging

Ether fell as buyers failed to sustain the bullish momentum above the $2,800 resistance and the 50-day SMA. A break above the 50-day SMA would have put the altcoin in an uptrend.

However, a break below the 21-day SMA support indicates a possible decline or resumption of the sideways trend. Ether is trading above support at $2,200 and resistance at $2,800. Today, Ether is rallying after hitting a low of $2,700. 

On the downside, ETH will continue to face selling pressure if it falls below the previous low of $2,200. The altcoin will revisit its previous lows of $2,116 and $2,000.
