Ethereum Analysis
On Monday, ETH’s price once again marked-up and when traders concluded for the day, ETH’s price was +$32.24.
The second chart we’re looking at today is the ETH/USD 2D chart by BojBrouns. ETH’s price is trading just above the ‘Demand Area’ labeled on the chart below, at the time of writing.
Bullish Ether market participants are aiming for a breakout above the trendline at the $1,343 level. If they’re successful in that aim the next target is the bottom of the ‘Supply Area’ which coincides with the $1,682 level.
If bulls have their way they may be able to again break the $2k level in a bid to go and test the top of the ‘Supply Area’ at $2,160.
