Ethereum - Due to drift lower In August 2022, we stated a bullish narrative regarding Ethereum's “merge” is absolute nonsense that will be proved wrong as time progresses. Then over the coming weeks, we also expressed our worries about the FED meeting in September 2022. Indeed, just hours before the FOMC, we speculated that Ethereum could have experienced a short-lived bounce, followed by a sharp drop. Our assessment proved to be correct, and Ethereum bounced up after the FED decision and then fell with the rest of the market. Because of that, combined with fundamental and technical factors, we continue to be bearish on Ethereum. Accordingly, we stick to our price targets of 1000 USD and 900 USD.

Ethereum - Pump and dump on a horizonSeptember 2022 brings many exciting events for the stock and cryptocurrency markets alike. However, we will pay close attention mainly to two events in particular. The first event we will pay attention to is the “merge” with the soft deadline on the 19th of September 2022; the merge will see the current execution layer being combined with a new consensus layer. As a result, Ethereum will transit from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake. That, in turn, will eliminate the need for energy-intensive mining and give Ethereum a competitive edge against other cryptocurrencies.
While the transition is significant from an environmental and technological point of view, it is less significant from a trading perspective. It does not change the fact that the FED will continue to increase interest rates to battle inflation (which will subsequently weigh on the economy and lead to risk aversion). Additionally, the distribution of ETHW tokens (Ethereum on the old proof-of-work protocol) raises our concerns. Because of these “out of the thin air” tokens, we think there might be an initial increase in the price of Ethereum (especially before the merge). However, we expect a potential bounce to be temporary and newly created tokens to be dumped on the market together with Ethereum (after the merge).
Our bearish view is also supported by technical factors, which show very low liquidity in the market. Simultaneously, several technical indicators point to the downside for ETHUSD. Because of that, we stick to our price target at 1 000 USD and 900 USD

Technical analysis - daily time frame
RSI and Stochastic are bullish. MACD is neutral; however, if it breaks above 0 points, it will bolster the bullish case in the short term. DM+ and DM- perform whipsaws, while ADX contains a relatively low value. Overall, the daily time frame is mixed.

ETH moving Hi guys, here is yet another idea. If we hold on, on our trend line and we do not fall under, there is a big chance of jumping up to 0.786. Otherwise, we will probably fall to 1564. Eventually 1543 can get tested as well. What do you think?

Ethereum about to jump to 2100+Hello guys, I just wanted to share this idea with you. As we can see on the graph the 2nd top was reached 4 months ago. 1st top was reached 8 months ago. So as you can see, a difference between those two tops is 4 months. I think our new top might be forming and it could be reached in the following 2 weeks.
If you find this idea helpful please leave a boost!
Ethereum - Panic creeps back into the marketThroughout July and August, we warned that the bounce in the cryptocurrency market, which many rushed to call a trend reversal, was a bear market rally doomed to fail. Then, on 16th August 2022, we gave an ultimate warning to investors as we speculated the top was in for the rally, and a 50% decline was looming.
Since then, the price of Ethereum has fallen an astounding 25%, and we have seen more confirmations of our bearish thesis. Because of that, we continue to be bearish in the short, medium, and long term. Indeed, we think the selloff will accelerate in the foreseeable future, leading to panic selling and subsequently to new lows over time.
Our views are based upon technical indicators that flash strong warning signs across the board and low liquidity in the market. However, fundamental factors also significantly contribute to our bearish opinion. Repeatedly, higher interest rates, quantitative tightening, and a slowing economy pose a great threat to the stock market and the cryptocurrency market.
Accordingly, we stick to our price target of 1 000 USD per Ethereum. However, we would like to set also a second price target for ETHUSD at 900 USD.
Illustration 1.01
The picture shows the daily chart of Ethereum and two moving averages, 20-day SMA and 50-day SMA. On 24th July 2022, these averages underwent mean reversion, signifying a powerful downtrend correction. We would like these averages to reverse into a bearish constellation to give us further bearish confirmation.

Ethereum - "FOMO" backfiringOn 15th August 2022, we proposed the idea of Ethereum being at the top of a bear market rally. Following our announcement, Ethereum erased more than 20% of its value within the following week. This move came as a blow to many market participants expecting the rally to continue toward the new ATH.
However, we have stressed for some time now that this would not be possible during 2022. Rather than that, we have said many times that the bear market would persist throughout the current year and likely during the next one.
Our assessment is based on fundamental and technical factors we explain below and in our previous ideas. Our price target for ETHUSD is 1 000 USD.

Ethereum - 50% decline loomingSimilarly, like in the case of Bitcoin, we also remain bearish on Ethereum. Indeed, we still maintain our price target of 1000 USD per coin. Our views are based on technical and fundamental factors detailed below and in the previous articles.

Ethereum - Raging bull market?! Is it, really?!In our previous idea, we argued Ethereum reached a potential top of the bear market rally. However, we remain cautious until we see more signs to confirm our assessment.
Our view is based upon bearish fundamental factors that will persist throughout 2022 and 2023, dragging the global economy into recession and causing risk-off sentiment. In our opinion, the drying up liquidity in the cryptocurrency market suggests trouble ahead, with volumes being low compared to where they were during previous bull markets. Additionally, several technical indicators flash overbought conditions for ETHUSD.
As if it was not enough, the market sentiment reflects raging “bull market euphoria” among retail investors, with many forgetting how deceitful bear market rallies tend to be. Mounting calls for the trend reversal, and new ATH point to the classic irrationality of market participants during such periods.
These developments worry us and, indeed, they lead us to speculate that the looming selloff will have extreme nature. Therefore, we maintain a bearish outlook on Ethereum. Accordingly, we stick to our price target of 1 000 USD.
Illustration 1.01
The picture above shows the daily chart of ETHUSD. The red arrow indicates a gradual decline in volume over the past three days. To confirm our previous assessment about the potential top, we would like to see a build-up in volume accompanying a price decline. So far, we have not seen that. Another development we would like to see is a breakout below the sloping support and the immediate support. That would bolster a bearish case for Ethereum.
Technical analysis - daily time frame
RSI crossed below 70 points, which is bearish; however, it is turning neutral. MACD is due to perform a bearish crossover. Stochastic is bearish. DM+ and DM- are bearish. Overall, the daily time frame is neutral/slightly bearish.

considering the market situation that recently can make a new short position. the price touched yesterday the Fib retracement line and also resistance movement line. Despite the price has gone above R1, I expect a pull back with respect to the Eliott pattern towards € 1470 and then it will continue its growth. we will see how the situation goes and after that I will also publish long position on the appropriate price.

Ethereum - "News rally" doomed to fail? After we abandoned our bearish bias on Ethereum last Friday, it rose by more than 30% just within three days. The media's narrative is that this move comes as “the merge” approaches Ethereum, which will drastically decrease its carbon footprint. That will be allowed due to Ethereum utilizing proof-of-stake instead of proof-of-work, which it currently uses to solve complicated mathematical problems in return for the cryptocurrency. Despite that, technical factors also strongly contributed to the recent price rise. However, we would like to voice a word of caution as bearish fundamental factors will persist throughout 2022; these elements include higher interest rates in the U.S. and around the globe, economic tightening, and an increasing prospect of a global recession. Because of that, we still believe that Ethereum has not bottomed out. Indeed, we think the current price bounce may turn into an ultimate bull trap as we continue to see mounting calls for the bottom and market participants trying to buy every possible dip. Such behavior does not reflect market capitulation. Additionally, the magnitude of moves does not reflect the bull market. Instead, it hints at classic bear market rallies, which are often fast and strong. Therefore, we think the current price is attractive for short re-entry, which should be accompanied by tight stop-loss (as we still see limited upside for ETHUSD).
Illustration 1.01
The yellow arrow indicates the bullish breakout. We will pay close attention to the volume and if it is sufficient to sustain the rally for a little longer.
Technical analysis - daily time frame
RSI is bullish, and if it breaks above 70 points, then it could elevate ETHUSD higher. However, if it fails, then the trend reversal might be imminent. Stochastic is bullish. MACD is bullish. The same applies to DM+ and DM-. Overall, the daily time frame is bullish.
Illustration 1.02
Long-term moving averages, 20-week SMA and 50-week SMA, remain bearish. Moving averages on the daily chart are less bearish; however, the bullish crossover did not occur yet.
Technical analysis - weekly time frame
RSI turned bullish recently. MACD and Stochastic are neutral. DM+ and DM- are bearish. Overall, the weekly time frame is turning neutral.
