Ethereum Price Major Breakdown

In the last analysis, we discussed that if there is a break below $90 in ETH price against the US Dollar, there can be an extension of losses. The price failed to hold gains and broke the $90 support. The most important move was below yesterday’s highlighted bullish trend line with support at $90.00 on the hourly chart. It opened the doors for more declines, and the price even broke the $88 support.

The downside was with strong momentum, taking the price below the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $83.35 low to $93.49 high. There was a sharp decline and the price even broke the $84 support. Later, there was a close below the last swing low of $83.35. This means the price may now head towards the 1.236 extension of the last wave from the $83.35 low to $93.49 high.

Ethereum Price Technical Analysis ETH USD

It looks like the ETH sellers are in full control, and may attempt to take the price further lower. There are even chances of ETH/USD testing $80.95 level. On the upside, the broken support at $88.42 and the 100 hourly simple moving average may now act as a resistance. There is a short-term trend change with a break below $85.
