Ethereum Faces $2,000 Support as Market Sees 13% Decline
Ethereum is testing the psychological barrier of $2,000 as Bitcoin nears $83,000. The total crypto market has dropped by nearly 13% in 36 hours, with liquidations reaching $1 billion in 24 hours. Ethereum's long liquidations amount to $2.84 million.
Bears Take Control as Ethereum Nears $2,000
The ETH price action shows a breakdown of a falling channel pattern, with a bearish engulfing candle and a pullback of 14.73%. Current market price is $2,078, with a low at $2,002 indicating lower price rejection.
Key points:
- Local support trend line breakdown suggests continued bearish momentum.
- Failure to surpass the center pivot level at $2,548 triggered the recent pullback.
- Critical resistance identified at $2,400, with potential for a rally if surpassed.
The most critical resistance barrier for #Ethereum is $2,400... A breakout above this level could clear the path for a rally toward $3,000!

ETFs Record $369M Outflow in Eight Consecutive Trading Days
Institutional support for Ethereum is declining. On March 3, US Ethereum spot ETFs experienced a net outflow of $12.10 million. Significant contributors to the outflows include BlackRock, which sold $16.06 million worth of Ethereum.
Over eight days, Ethereum ETFs reported total outflows of $369.45 million.
Key ETH Price Target Levels
Expectations indicate potential further decline towards the Fibonacci level of $1,740 due to bearish patterns. Analyst predictions suggest a possible drop to $1,250 following a break from a parallel channel.
However, a lower price rejection may allow Ethereum to re-enter the falling-channel pattern, enabling consolidation near the local boundary before retesting the center pivot around $2,500.
