Ethereum Technical Analysis: ETH/USD gets rejected from $400 again

  • ETH/USD attempted to climb above $400 again but immediately dropped to $382.
  • Ethereum is still in a daily uptrend under healthy consolidation.

The price of Ethereum hasn’t changed much during the past few days despite the massive flash crash down to $330 suffered on August 2. The digital asset is currently fighting to stay above $400 but will not face a lot of resistance until $500.

The 12-EMA in the daily chart is still only at $342 so it will take a few more days for it to catch up with the price. Ethereum hasn’t seen any major pullbacks yet and will use both EMAs for support if it happens.

The current candlestick is a DOJI but only because of the flash crash. The most important signal for Ethereum is the break of $363, which represented a major resistance level. If the bulls can stay above this level and close August, they will absolutely confirm a monthly uptrend.
