The ETH/USD pair traded for an extended period within a sideways range of 3437.50–2770.00 (Murrey level [3/8], 61.8% Fibonacci retracement), but last week it exited this range after breaking below the lower boundary and resumed movement within a descending channel. Yesterday, the price tested the 2187.50 level (Murrey level [–1/8]) near the June lows. A breakdown below this area would likely open the way toward 1875.00 (Murrey level [–2/8]) and 1481.60 (100.0% Fibonacci retracement). However, if the price manages to consolidate above the 3165.00–3125.00 resistance zone (50.0% Fibonacci retracement, Murrey level [2/8]), an upside breakout from the range could occur, signaling a trend reversal and opening the path for growth toward 3750.00 (Murrey level [4/8]) and 4062.50 (Murrey level [5/8], 23.6% Fibonacci retracement).
Technical indicators continue to point to a sell signal: Bollinger Bands are turning lower, the MACD histogram is expanding in negative territory, and the Stochastic oscillator has entered oversold territory, which does not rule out a limited corrective rebound.
It is also worth noting that on the weekly chart, Bollinger Bands are turning downward, while the price action has completed a “flag” pattern within a downtrend, increasing the likelihood of further negative dynamics in the medium term.
