ETHUSD Breaks Descending Trendline, Faces Resistance at EMA 200

Written by Baxia Markets | Mar 21, 2024 2:06:44 PM

ETHUSD exhibited bullish strength yesterday as it broke above a descending trendline, but today encountered resistance at the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) 200, resulting in sideways trading. Technical indicators and key levels suggest potential outcomes for the cryptocurrency pair.


While ETHUSD did not bounce off the EMA 200, it traded sideways as the EMA 50 moved closer to convergence with the EMA 200. Traders are closely monitoring two key support levels: the EMA 50 and the lower band of the Bollinger band. A break below the lower band could signal a continuation of the bearish trend.

Conversely, key resistance levels include the EMA 200 and the volume profile upper side of the value area at $3712. Breaking above these resistance levels could increase the likelihood of a bullish reversal in ETHUSD.

Technical indicators, including the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI), point to bullish sentiment. The MACD's signal line is significantly above the 0 line, indicating robust bullish momentum, while the RSI has consistently hovered above the 50% level, underscoring the strength of the bulls.

In summary, ETHUSD is currently consolidating after breaking a descending trendline, with traders eyeing key support and resistance levels for potential trend continuation or reversal. Technical indicators suggest bullish sentiment, but market participants remain cautious amid ongoing price action.
