Ethereum Classic Price Prediction: Is this the pullback we’ve been waiting for?

  • Ethereum Classic falls in free-fall fashion after landing in a weekly congestion zone.
  • ETC price has printed three clear impulse waves up.
  • Invalidation of the bullish outlook is a breach below $13.28. 

Ethereum classic price has more upside potential but finding an entry point will be challenging.

Ethereum Classic price is a dangeous knife

Ethereum Classic price currently trades at $33.88 as the bears take full advantage of the profit-taking consolidation near the $40 congestion zone. Last week, an inaccurate forecast was issued, which targeted the $19 zone. Now that the Ethereum price is reclining, traders are watching the digital asset closely, looking for a potential entry and additional target in the $42, $47 and $50 levels.

Ethereum Classic price has printed three clear impulse waves up, suggesting a more extensive bull run could be underway. Still, the pullback could fall as deep as the anticipated target mentioned in last week’s thesis at $19. Thus attempting to catch a knife is ill-advised. A more favorable low could be between $28 and $33, with the same targets mentioned above.
