Demand Zones: $159, $150, $140

The formation of bullish engulfing candle signaled the increase in the Bulls’ momentum; this propelled the Ethereum price towards $167 level and broke up the level to expose the $178 supply zone.
A pin bar formed on May 01 that indicates a bearish reversal of the price; that is exactly what the market is experiencing currently. Ethereum price movement has led to the formation of a descending channel on the 4-hour chart.
The coin is directly on the two EMAs and the 21 periods EMAs is trying to cross 50 periods EMA downside to indicate that bearish momentum is ongoing in the ETH market.
However, the Relative Strength Index period 14 is above 50 levels and the signal lines pointing down to indicate a further reduction in ETH price. Ethereum is currently heading towards $159 price level.
Further increase in the Bears’ momentum will definitely lead to the decrease in Ethereum price that may break down the $159 level to target $150 price level. Should the Bulls defend $159 level, then, Ethereum price will face the north.
