ETH/BTC daily chart

Ethereum is breaking lower against the king of digital cryptocurrencies (bitcoin). The price has dropped 2.37% on Wednesday's session alone. The key for the current session was the break of the red trendline at 0.2250. Now to complete the pattern the price would need to break the low just above the 0.0200 psychological zone. This would make a lower high lower low price wave pattern.

Looking at the volume indicator the market seem to be backing this move. The volume steadily increased as the price fell and this is a good sign for the bears. The relative strength index indicator is looking very oversold. This could suggest there is a short term pullback in the making before the underlying trend continues.
