Ethereum price action has seen a steady decline over the last days after the $2,950 mark reversed the market on May 4 2022. After the initial spike lower to $2,700, ETH/USD continued to test further downside over the weekend, reaching the $2,500 next support.

Slight reaction and consolidation followed late yesterday, with selling pressure returning overnight. Since then, ETH has declined past the $2,400 next price milestone, indicating an extension for the decline.

However, since the next support at $2,300 is still relatively far away, we expect the Ethereum price to decline even further. Once the next major support is reached, ETH/USD could see a quick reversal.

Ethereum price analysis: Conclusion 

Ethereum price analysis is bearish today as we have seen a strong decline over the last 24 hours leading below $2,400. Therefore, there is still room to drop to the next major support at $2,300.
