Ethereum price action has seen strong bullish momentum diminish over the past week. After a new major swing high was set at $1,650, ETH/USD lost its momentum and moved into a steady retrace over several days until the $1,500 support was reached.
From there, another quick spike higher reached the $1,650 resistance, forming a double-top reversal pattern. Selling has once again slowly returned since, as bears look to reclaim the $1,600 mark and move for a deeper retrace.
Ethereum price should see further selling overnight as a result of the current lack of buyers. Once the $1,600 local support is broken, ETH/USD will likely quickly move back towards the $1,500 support, where another slightly higher low will be set. In case ETH breaks the $1,500 support, we expect a lot more serious selling over the next week as the next major support is as low as the $1,400 mark.
Ethereum price analysis: ConclusionÂ
Ethereum price analysis is bearish today as we have seen continuous and steady retrace after the $1,650 mark was retested on Friday. Therefore, we expect ETH/USD to continue even lower and look to move toward previous support at $1,500 early next week.
