Ether (ETH) Re-Bound Lacks Conviction
Wednesday's late sell-off saw Ether trade back at the February 6 swing-low, a target we have been talking about over the last few weeks and mentioned again at yesterday's . The token also traded below all three moving averages, another bearish signal, while the RSI indicator remain mid-range. The crypto-market as a space has reclaimed some of Wednesday's falls but trading volumes remain low and the path of least resistance is for lower prices. On the downside the next target is the two December lows, either side of $500, which should provide reasonable support in the short- to medium-term.
