This bearish outlook is premised on the fact that sellers have been in a dominant position in the short term and for much of the past month. This dominance is evident in the formation of a descending channel on the four-hour timeframe of the Ethereum price chart.
A descending channel is a technical analysis chart pattern characterized by two major trendlines: the upper boundary connecting the lower highs and the lower line connecting the lower lows. This chart formation is often correlated to a bearish structure, with the upper trendline acting as resistance and the lower boundary as the price floor.
According to Kesmeci, the persistence of the Ethereum price within the descending channel and the weak price momentum suggest that a downward move is on the cards. The crypto analyst highlighted that ETH could drop to the $1,822 – $1,850 range, so long as the overhead resistance at the upper boundary of $2,033 (Fibonacci 0.5) holds.
Ethereum ETFs Post $241 Million In Outflows Over The Past WeekThis dwindling demand in the Ethereum market is evident in rising spot ETF outflows, which climbed above $241 million over the past week. This past week’s record marked the third consecutive week with significant net outflows for the spot ETH exchange-traded funds.
The Ethereum price action over the past three weeks has been a fair reflection of this pessimistic market condition. According to CoinGecko data, the second-largest cryptocurrency has lost nearly 15% of its value in the last three weeks.
As of this writing, the price of ETH stands at around $2,023, with no significant change in the past 24 hours.
