TA: Ethereum Consolidates Above $2,700, Here Are Chances of Downward Move

Ethereum extended its rally and it traded to a new all-time high near $2,800 against the US Dollar. ETH price is correcting gains, but dips are likely to be supported near $2,650.

  • Ethereum remained well bid and it even climbed towards the $2,800 level.
  • The price is now trading well above $2,700 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
  • There is a crucial rising channel forming with support near $2,700 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken).
  • The pair could correct lower, but the bulls are likely to appear near $2,650 and $2,620.

Ethereum Price Remains In Uptrend

Ethereum remained well bid above the $2,650 support level, unlike bitcoin. ETH extended its rise above the $2,750 high and it settled nicely above the 100 hourly simple moving average.

It traded to a new all-time high at $2,800 before it started a downside correction. There was a break below the $2,780 and $2,750 levels. Ether is now trading below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2,560 swing low to $2,800 high.

It is still trading well above $2,700 and the 100 hourly simple moving average. There is also a crucial rising channel forming with support near $2,700 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.

The next key support is near the $2,680 level. It is near the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2,560 swing low to $2,800 high. Any more losses could lead the price towards the $2,650 support level and the 100 hourly simple moving average.

If ether fails to stay above the $2,650 support level and the 100 hourly simple moving average, it could dive towards the $2,580 level.

Fresh Increase in ETH?

If Ethereum remains stable above the channel support and $2,650, it could start a fresh increase. An initial resistance on the upside is near the $2,780 level.

The first major resistance is near the $2,800 level. A clear upside break above the $2,800 level and the channel upper trend line could set the pace for a sharp increase towards the $3,000 resistance zone in the next few sessions.

Technical Indicators

Hourly MACD The MACD for ETH/USD is now losing momentum in the bullish zone.

Hourly RSI The RSI for ETH/USD is still above the 50 level.

ENS DAO delegates offer perspective on DAO governance and decentralized identity

AlphaWallet CEO and Spruce co-founder talk about their roles as contributors to the Ethereum Name Service following the project's recent airdrop. Earlier this month, the Ethereum Name Service, or ENS, formed a decentralized autonomous organization, or DAO, for the ENS community.  Cointelegraph spoke to two ENS DAO delegates who applied for the opportunity to represent the community and stay involved in the decision making process: Victor Zhang, CEO of AlphaWallet, an open source Ethereum wallet, and Gregory Rocco, co-founder of Spruce, a decentralized ID and data toolkit for developers. Zhang spoke about his experience as an external contributor to ENS and an early supporter since 2018. Zhang initially sought to help ENS by offering Alpha Wallet as a user-friendly tool for  resolving .eth names and cryptocurrency wallet addresses. Essentially, if a user inputs an .eth name in the AlphaWallet, it will show the wallet address, and vice versa using reverse resolution. Alpha...

How Social Platform Chingari is Using Web 3.0 to Transform the Traditional Way We Use Social Media

The world is changing. This isn’t news to anyone, but sometimes it is nice to realize that—contrary to news headlines—not all the change is bad.  In fact, the last decade has seen so much innovation and so many improvements to technology that even 2015 seems like a different world.  Internet speeds, connecting with anyone globally (for free), and our ability to reach large groups of people without a middleman is nothing short of revolutionary. When it comes to technology evolution, this often happens with different iterations.  Once a system is mature, there’s a better idea of what we would like to change and improve.  We go back to the drawing board, target our creative minds at the issues, and create a new version that has evolved to better meet our needs.  The Internet has followed this model since its inception, evolving through three distinct stages.  We are only at the cusp of the third stage, called Web 3.0, with technologies such as blockchain and ...

INX submits bid for Voyager Digital's assets

FTX US won a $1.4-billion bid to purchase Voyager’s assets in September, but with the firm filing for bankruptcy, the funds were once again up for grabs. Trading platform INX has submitted a bid for an undisclosed amount to purchase the assets of crypto brokerage firm Voyager Digital. In a Nov. 30 announcement, INX said it had sent a non-binding letter of intent for Voyager’s assets following the platform filing for bankruptcy in July. According to INX CEO Shy Datika, the bid was aimed at providing “credibility, technology, and unique regulatory positioning” for Voyager users seeking stability in a volatile market. Voyager’s original bankruptcy filing from the Southern District Court of New York suggested the firm could owe between $1 billion to $10 billion to more than 100,000 creditors amid a bear market and exposure to Three Arrows Capital. In September, FTX US won a $1.4-billion bid to purchase Voyager’s assets, but with FTX Group itself filing for bankruptcy in November, th...
