On the 4-hour chart, we can see bullish momentum returning voer the last hours, likely leading Ethereum price action to retest the $1,400 previous support as resistance soon.

Ethereum price action has seen over a week long decline from the last major swing high at $1,800. After initial support was found at $1,550 last week, ETH/USD failed to continue higher, confirming further selling pressure to come.
