Ethereum (ETH/USD), and Ethereum/Bitcoin (ETH/BTC) Prices, Charts, and Analysis
- Ethereum now eyes $5k after breaking above the October ATH.
- Basic bullish channels continue to hold.
The cryptocurrency market continues to edge higher and the outlook for the short- to medium-term remains positive despite the markets’ increasingly lofty levels. I wrote at the weekend that the Ethereum set-up remains positive into the year-end and today’s new high underscores this.
Bitcoin Steadies Around $61k, Ethereum Posts a New All-Time High
Ethereum (ETH/USD) is leading the cryptocurrency market higher today and has just posted a fresh new high as buyers remain in control of the market. The daily chart shows a basic bullish channel that has been in control of price action since late September. The steepness of the channel will eventually prove difficult for Ethereum to remain above, but while ETH trades either side of support, higher prices will be seen. All three simple moving averages remain in a bullish formation, while the CCI indicator shows Ethereum as overbought, but not excessively so. Initial short-term support between $4,146 and $4,166.
