ETH/USD: technical picture
From the technical point of view, ETH/USD moved above SMA50 weekly at $188.59, which has improved the technical picture significantly. The next critical barrier is located at psychological $200.00. Once it is out of the way, the upside is likely to gain traction with the next focus on $238.50 created by SMA200 weekly. The coin has never traded above this MA. A sustainable move above this barrier may unleash the long-term bullish potential of the coin.
On the downside, if ETH/USD returns to the area below SMA50 weekly ($188.59), the sell-off may be extended towards the next important support created by SMA200 daily at $173.70. This area is likely to slow down the bears and create a precondition for a rebound.
