Ethereum price action has traded within consolidation area for over a week now. After ETH/USD broke above $1,350 earlier in the week, selling pressure quickly returned later, resulting in another test of $1,250 support.

From there, ETH made a quick move higher and found resistance at $1,350. Consolidation followed as a result, with selling pressure slowly returning during the middle of the day.

Selling pressure has continued since, leading Ethereum price back above $1,300. Since no signs of a slowdown have been seen yet, we expect ETH/USD to drop even further over the next 24 hours, with the next major target at $1,175.
