News
Today, ETH is trading at $389 as the market continues its fluctuation below the $400 resistance. Buyers have been unable to break the current resistance because of some factors.
The altcoins are correlated in the cryptocurrency markets. The general breakdown on August 11 affected most of the coins. Besides the price momentum is yet to pick up after the breakdown.
On the upside, a strong bounce above the current support will propel the price to break the $400 resistance. ETH will have an accelerated movement to the previous highs. The current momentum will pick up above $420 as the price continues to reach the target price at $520. Nonetheless, the biggest altcoin may continue the range-bound movement below the resistance if it fails to breach the resistance.
