During the aggressive sell-off in mid-August, the Ethereum price showed a bearish breakdown from the support trendline of the channel pattern. Losing the support which carried a bullish trend for nine months, reflects this coin is at risk of an extended correction. However, the falling price halted at 200 EMA slope around $1620 reflecting the buyers’ push to hold higher prices. Will this support bolster the continuation of the prior downtrend?

Despite a high momentum breakdown from the channel pattern, the ETH sellers failed to offer a suitable follow up reflecting a lack of conviction in bears. Moreover, the weekly chart showed long-wick rejection candles at 200-day EMA as a sign of active accumulation.
The 200-day EMA is an important technical tool that segregates between the bullish or bearish sentiment in the market. Historically, this EMA slope has acted as major support or resistance and an important turning point in the market.
Considering the bearish momentum in the market, the Ether price should give a weekly candle closing above the aforementioned support to get a better confirmation for downtrend continuation.
The post-break fall may have plunged the price to $1500, followed by $1366.

Here’s how ETH Price may restore a bullish trend.
While the bearish momentum seems valid for the ETH price, the increasing demand pressure at EMA support could offer a significant bounceback. However, the potential upswing must surpass the aforementioned breakdown high of $1800 to get better confirmation of recovery.
- Relative Strength Index: A downtick in the daily RSI slope reflects the selling momentum is active.
- Exponential Moving Average: A bearish crossover between the 20-and-50 weekly EMAs would bolster sellers for a prolonged downfall.
