Ethereum Pauses Above $3,100 And Fluctuates Within Its Range

The price of Ethereum (ETH) has found support at $2,850 and has fallen below the resistance of the 21-day SMA or high at $3,200. Price analysis by Coinidol.com.

Long-term analysis of the Ethereum price: bearish

Since July 8, buyers have moved steadily higher. On July 11, the cryptocurrency saw a strong rejection at the 21-day SMA, leading to a long candlewick.

If the bulls break the 21-day SMA, the bullish momentum will continue to the 50-day SMA high or the resistance at $3,500. Currently, the upside has stalled in the middle of the price range or above the $3,100 support.

On the downside, the bulls have successfully defended support at $2,850 over the last three months. However, a break below the current support level will cause Ether to fall below the $2,200 level.
