Jan 03, 2023 at 09:23 // Price

The overbought area of the market for Ether has been reached

Ethereum price (ETH) has resumed its uptrend above the $1,100 support.

Long-term analysis of the Ethereum price: bearish


Above the $1,100 support, the price movement was unchanged last week. On December 27, buyers unsuccessfully tried to hold the price above the moving average lines. Currently, buyers are struggling to penetrate the moving average lines. Moreover, the largest altcoin has entered the overbought zone at a high of $1,220. On the upside, the bullish momentum will continue to the high of $1,300 if the bulls break above the moving average lines. On the downside, the current range will remain between $1,100 and $1,240 if buyers are unable to break the previous high.
