Ethereum Attempts Breakout from Multi-Month Downtrend Amid Market Recovery

Ethereum (ETH) is attempting to break its multi-month downtrend amid market recovery. However, it struggles to maintain the $1,600 support level, risking a loss of momentum.

Market Performance Overview

  • On Easter Sunday, the crypto market rose 4.2%. Bitcoin (BTC) closed above $85,000.
  • Ethereum surged 5.4%, reaching approximately $1,640 before climbing to $1,658 on Monday.
  • ETH has tried to reclaim the $1,600 resistance three times in one week.

Technical Analysis

  • Analyst Ted Pillows noted ETH broke out of descending resistance on Monday.
  • Previous rejections have occurred since early February, with recent bearish sentiment pushing prices below $1,700.
  • ETH hit a two-year low below $1,400 due to external factors like the US-China tariff war.
  • If ETH holds the $1,600 support, it could rally towards $2,000; otherwise, it may drop further.

Future Outlook

  • Analyst Carl Runefelt suggests that a breakout could target $3,000 if momentum builds.
  • Current trading range is between $1,570 and $1,580 after retracing from its earlier gains.
  • Analyst Ali Martinez states a new rally requires breaking through the $2,330 supply wall.
  • ETH/BTC chart indicates potential bottoming as it reaches lows not seen since 2020.
