Ethereum (ETH/USD) managed to reclaim some lost ground early in today’s North American session as the pair appreciated to the 400.50 area after trading as low as the 370.00 area during the Asian session. This intraday low was established after Stops were elected below the 376.07 area, representing the 61.8% retracement of the recent appreciation from 306.29 to 488.95. Technical trading was recently evident when the pair failed to sustain a break of the 444.08 area, representing the 23.6% retracement of the recent appreciation from 371.50 to 488.95. Thereafter, the 100-bar 4-hour simple moving average has capped the upside of ETH/USD. Stops were then elected below the 430.23 and 416.37 areas during the downturn, representing the 50% and 61.8% retracements of the appreciating range. Earlier this week, traders drove the pair as high as the 488.95 area after some Stops were elected above the 487.55 area, its first test of the psychologically-important 500.00 figure since July 2018. Stops were recently elected above the 474.59 area, an upside price objective that represents the 50% retracement of the historical depreciation from 828.97 to 80.60. Additional upside price objectives include the 498.68, 516.03, 517.38, 531.80, and 543.09 areas.
The pair’s ongoing upward momentum was confirmed recently when buying pressure emerged around the 418.79 area during a pullback, representing the 61.8% retracement of the historical depreciation from 627.83 to 80.60. This level, however, could emerge to be technical resistance during moves lower. Stops were elected below the 394.80, 389.94, 384.36, 376.07, 369.57, 359.36, and 345.38 areas during the pair’s recent depreciation from the 488.95 area, and traders are curious to see if these levels provide any technical support during pullbacks. The 396.69 area remains an important technical level, representing the 23.6% retracement of the historical depreciation from 1419.96 to 80.60. Following the pair’s recent appreciation, important technical levels include the 416.00, 409.64, 389.91, 383.02, 374.83, and 359.36 areas. Traders are observing that the 50-bar MA (4-hourly) is bullishly indicating above the 100-bar MA (4-hourly) and above the 200-bar MA (4-hourly). Also, the 50-bar MA (hourly) is bearishly indicating below the 100-bar MA (hourly) and below the 200-bar MA (hourly).
