If buyers break through the resistance of the EMA55 moving average today, the pair may leave the sideways range and test the resistance of $1,400.

On the 4H chart, Ethereum (ETH) is bullish as it has the chance to retest the local resistance at $1,381.

However, such a move should be considered a part of a correction phase but not a prerequisite for setting new peaks.

On the daily chart, Ethereum (ETH) is also more bullish than bearish. Buyers' power is confirmed by high liquidity at the current levels, however, the trading volume is low, making it difficult to talk about an all-time high. All in all, the area around $1,430 may be a magnet for bulls shortly.

Ethereum is trading at $1,339 at press time.
