ICYMI: ETH has jumped to a new ATH of $1,920, placing the cryptocurrency in uncharted waters, and on the cusp of a new $2,000 psychological barrier.
FOR B(ETHER) OR FOR WORSE: Briefly after recovering most of the weekend’s loss, ETH experienced another retracement to below $1,750. A bullish ‘cup & handle’ pattern on ETHUSD’s 1-hour chart has taken shape. The MACD line is diverging from the signal line, suggesting the bulls remain in control for the time being. Meanwhile, the 14-day RSI is U-turning from the overbought region. If ETH manages to stay on top of the $1,900 resistance level, the next resistance level to watch for is near $1,940. Otherwise, a backtest of ETH’s prior ATH could also happen. Not to worry, though — it would still be in line with a standard bullish market structure.
