Ethereum (ETH) Daily Chart Analysis

The altcoin formed a bull cycle within the framework of a cup and handle pattern. This pattern, when observed in the daily time frame chart, hints that Ethereum may be poised for further upside potential.

ETH progress remains confined within a range marked by two horizontal levels at $1,608 as resistance and $1,521 as support. Until the price manages to breach these boundaries decisively, it is likely to sustain a sideways trading pattern.

Currently, ETH is trading slightly above $1,590 and is closely tracked by the Exponential Moving Average (EMA). There is a pivotal bullish trend line that is emerging, offering support around $1,570 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.

Also, as the buying pressure continues to solidify around the $1,531 support, there’s potential for a new bullish cycle to kick in within the range pattern. Further, a break above the $1,608 resistance would open doors to higher price levels, with $1,650 and $1,975 being potential targets for the bulls.

However, in a scenario where Ethereum struggles to surpass the $1,608 resistance level, it may pave the way for a downward movement. In this case, the initial support was located near the $1,575 level. The next significant support level is at $1,550. This threshold could propel the price into a deeper bearish phase, possibly targeting the $1,520 level.

At the time of writing, Ethereum’s price is at $1,590, reflecting a 2% gain over the past 24 hours. Additionally, the daily trading volume has surged significantly, registering an impressive increase of more than 103% and reaching $8.2 billion.
