What’s Next For Ethereum?

Bullish traders are looking to see Ethereum continue to push higher and eventually break above resistance. Bulls would then like to see the crypto test the $4,000 as support and consolidate above it. This could let Ethereum see a further push higher.

Bearish traders would like to see Ethereum drop back to the higher low trendline and be able to cross below it. If Ethereum could cross below the higher low trendline it may signal that the crypto is changing trends and ready to see a dip lower.
