Ethereum Declines as It Continues to Face Rejection at the $480 Overhead Resistance
Nov 19, 2020 at 11:16 //
NewsYesterday, Ethereum bulls surprisingly broke the resistance at $480 as the coin rallied to $494 high. Unfortunately, the bulls failed to sustain the uptrend as Ether plunged to $458 low.
The price corrected upward twice to retest the resistance zone. On each retest at the resistance, the biggest altcoin will face rejection at the recent high. The coin is falling and approaching the low at $472 at the time of writing. On the downside, if the price falls and breaks below the support at $450, the downtrend will continue to linger.
The current selling pressure may reach a low of $400. Conversely, if price retraces and finds support above $450, the upside momentum will resume. The coin will rise again and consolidate near the resistance zone until a breakout is achieved. The first target after the breakout will be at $488. Subsequently, the momentum will extend to $520.
