Ethereum Regains Upside Momentum, Can the Bulls Resume the Rally?

Since November 24, buyers have been able to sustain the upside range between $560 and $620. Recently, Ether retraced to the support at $565 and has resumed upward.

The recent sideways move near the overhead resistance is an indication of a possible breakout in the future. The bottom line is that as long as the price level is sustained above $560, the upside range will continue until a breakout is achieved.

Today, the altcoin resumed its upward move to retest the overhead resistance. Ethereum will resume a fresh uptrend if the overhead resistance is breached. The crypto will resume the upside momentum and rally to $800. However, in the absence of any breakout, the sideways move below the resistance will continue. Nonetheless, the upside momentum will be weakened, if the coin falls and the price breaks the $550 support
