Ethereum Is In A Range Bound Move, Indicating A Possible Rise

After the decline on May 11, the price of Ethereum (ETH) is fluctuating.

Long-term analysis of the Ethereum price: bearish

The largest altcoin is currently trading above the support level of $1,740 but below the moving average lines or resistance level of $1,900. Today, at the time of writing, one Ether is worth $1,812.30. Due to the presence of Doji candlesticks, price movement has been minimal since the May 11 decline. As long as Doji candlesticks prevail in the price movement, the current movement or consolidation will continue within a certain range. If the altcoin gains momentum, Ether will move. If Ether rises above the current support, the uptrend will return. Ether will rise above the moving average lines and resistance at $1,900 thanks to the resulting uptrend. The cryptocurrency will eventually return to its high of $2,000. However, Ether has already turned away from the previous downtrend. It is unlikely that the downward pressure will increase further.
