We have not changed our stance on Ethereum. We stay bearish with the price target of 1 000 USD. At the moment, Ethereum follows a similar pattern of exhaustion observable in BTCUSD. In addition to that, the same fundamental, technical and regulatory factors pose threat to this cryptocurrency; all this combined, forces us to stick to our previous assessments on ETHUSD.
Illustration 1.01 The picture above shows our assessment of particular price levels for ETHUSD.
Technical analysis - daily time frame RSI, MACD, and Stochastic are all bearish. DM+ and DM- are bullish. Overall, the daily time frame is bearish.
Illustration 1.02 The chart above shows the relationship between price and volume. It can be seen that after bullish breakouts, volume declined, hinting at the temporary evaporation of buyers. Now, we want to see a build-up in volume accompanying a declining price to confirm our bearish thesis.
Technical analysis - weekly time frame RSI is neutral. MACD performed bullish crossover. Stochastic is bullish. DM+ and DM- are bearish. Overall, the weekly time frame sends mixed signals. Despite that, in our opinion, the bullish conditions are peaking now.
