The Hourly View for ETH

Last Updated March 2, 2021, 02:048 GMT

Currently, ETH’s price is down $-1.21 (-0.08%) from the hour prior. This move is a reversal from the hour prior, which saw price move up. Regarding the trend, note that the strongest trend exists on the 50 hour timeframe. price action traders may also wish to note that we see a pin bar candlestick pattern on ETH. Given that we see an uptrend on the 20 and 10 hourly candle timeframe, and that such candlestick patterns often denote reversals, this may be worth noting. The moving averages on the hourly timeframe suggest a choppiness in price, as the 20, 50, 100 and 200 are all in a mixed alignment — meaning the trend across timeframes is inconsistent, indicating a potential opportunity for rangebound traders.

Ethereum Technical Analysis

First things first: Ethereum crossed above its 50 day moving average yesterday. Trend traders will want to observe that the strongest trend appears on the 14 day horizon; over that time period, price has been moving down. Also of note is that on a 30 day basis price appears to be forming a base — which could the stage for it being a support/resistance level going forward. Or to view things another way, note that out of the past 30 days Ethereum’s price has gone up 16 them. Those interested in trading off candles may wish to observe the emergence of a bullish engulfing pattern, which seems particularly noteworthy against the backdrop of a downtrend on the 14 and 90 day time periods.
