ETH bulls face resistance from a previous support zone.

Ethereum price underwater

Ethereum price is undergoing strong suppression as the bears deny entry to the mid $1200 barrier. On December 25, ETH sitt 6% below the monthly open, adding an 8% decline to last week's closing price. As the ETH price consolidates, the decentralized smart-contract token shows little remorse for early bulls in the market. On the daily time frames, bearish engulfing candlesticks are prevalent, with slight upticks in volume, suggesting ETH is on its way further south.

Ethereum price currently auctions at $1,210. On December 16, The bears produced a daily closing candlestick beneath the $1,230 zone causing a 3% loss from the average market value. The breach is a clear warning signal as the zone was essential in providing support during ETH's 30% uptrend rally in October.

The bulls have attempted to regain access to the vital support zone but have been denied on several occasions following the breach. If market conditions persist, the nail in the coffin may already be in. A sweep of the weekly low of $1,163 could send ETH back to sub-1,000 price levels.
