The price of Ethereum (ETH) has moved back above the $1,608 support level or the 21-day line SMA.
Long-term analysis of the Ethereum price: bullish
After experiencing rejection at the recent high, the largest altcoin is now falling again. Buyers were unable to sustain upward momentum above the $1,700 level on February 2. Since February 2, the cryptocurrency value has lost value. If the price stays above the moving average lines, Ether will move up and retest the $1,700 barrier. If the price breaks the $1,700 resistance level and the bullish momentum continues, the uptrend will resume. Ether will rise to a high of $1,800 or $2,000. However, if the Ether price breaks below the 21-day line SMA, it will continue to fall until it reaches its previous bottom. The most valuable altcoin will eventually reach a low of $1,352 and then $1,500.

Key support levels – $1,800 and $1,300
What is the next direction for Ethereum?
Ether is currently bearish because it has crossed the moving average lines. The conclusion is that the altcoin needs to move in a range for a few days. If the price falls below the moving average lines, the selling pressure may return.
