Ethereum Surges Ahead, Battles $175 Resistance

Ethereum made a sharp move above the range-bound zone. The recent move was cut short at the $175 resistance. Incidentally, this was a close shave at the resistance line.

Presently, ETH is in a sideways move below the current resistance. Each time, the bulls attempt to penetrate the $175 resistance; the market will fall to a low of $165. The bulls are desperate as the market consolidates below $175 resistance. 

Interestingly, if the bulls are successful above the current resistance, ETH will rally above $200 and the momentum will extend to the high of $240. Ethereum stands the chance of another opportunity if the bulls break the resistance line. It is anticipated that as price breaks and closes above the resistance line, it signals a change in trend. Meanwhile, the market is still in a sideways move towards the resistance line.
