Ethereum: Downside aplenty
|- Stuck in a downward sloping lower high, lower low channel.
- Short term, resistance glares to show southward journey.
Ethereum, the ambitious third largest cryptocurrency by market capitalisation, is stuck in a downward sloping lower high, lower low parallel channel on the long term chart, while on the short term it faces stiff resistance just around current price - recipe for immediate downside in the coin.
ETH/USD is down about two cents of a percent at $106.94 and trading in less than 2 percent range for the day. On the daily chart, the crypto is stuck in a parallel channel sloping downard while on the 180-minute chart, it is just under the descending trendline resistance.
Combined together, these patterns indicate that the coin is ripe to head lower and two digit marks will be a reality again soon. In fact, last year lows of sub 90 would be at risk of breaching.
