Following the BTC Flash Crash, ETH Takes Aim at ATH Again

Key Support level: $3,900

Key Resistance level: $4,380

Ethereum missed breaking the all-time high by less than $5 dollars today and is now preparing for another attempt after a sharp rejection (13% drop on Bitstamp). As we reported earlier, Bitcoin flash crashed on numerous exchanges and even dipped by 87% on Binance US for a second. This dragged the entire market down, but it seems that prices are now recovering.

The bulls quickly bought the support line at $3,900 after the price was rejected, showing that this move has the strength to push us above the key resistance at $4,380, which is also the ETH all-time high.

ETH Price Technical Indicators

Volume: The volume is increasing by the hour, which is very bullish, and another attempt to move beyond the all-time high seems to be right around the corner.

RSI: On the daily timeframe, the RSI has crossed over the 70 points level, this signals a bullish market and that bulls are in control of the price action.

MACD:  The histogram is showing higher highs for the past three days with no signs of weakness. The bias remains bullish as long as the MACD stays on the positive side.

Bias

The ETH bias can be considered as extremely bullish, with the price having recently been rejected from the all-time high by a very thin margin and now recovering.

At the time of this writing, ETH is attempting another break of resistance. It’s interesting to see, though, if the bears will reject the price once again at this key technical and psychological level.

Short-Term Price Prediction for ETH
