The cryptocurrency market was hit with another round of selling on May 26 as Bitcoin (BTC) price dropped to $28,000 and Ether (ETH) briefly fell under $1,800. The ETH/BTC pair also dropped below what traders deem to be an important ascending trendline, a move that traders say could result in Ether price correcting to new lows.
Here’s a rundown of what several analysts in the market are saying about the move lower for Ethereum and what it could mean for its price in the near term.
Price consolidation will eventually result in a sharp move
A brief check-in on what levels of support and resistance to keep an eye on was provided by independent market analyst Michaël van de Poppe, who posted the following chart showing Ether trading near its range low.
Van de Poppe said:
“The question will be whether we can bounce from here and break the $1,940 level. If that happens, I’m assuming we’ll continue $2,050. If it doesn’t, then the markets are looking at <$1,800 probably.”
