The Daily Chart
Using the Fibonacci retracement levels, ETH has touched two significant levels during this ongoing correction: 23.6% at $1,900 and 38.2% at $1,000.
Undoubtedly, these support and resistance levels are closely observed by the majority of technical analysts. Suppose buyers fail to defend the psychological support at $1,000, reaching lower levels is not out of the question – the next Fib level lies at the 50% correction and a price of $650. Further below, the next support is at 61.8% (the golden level), which lies at $400.

On-chain Analysis
Transaction Count (Total) – SMA 30
Definition: The total number of transactions in which a transfer of tokens has been executed.
Uptrends are often associated with an increasing number of transactions. Since recording the all-time high in November 2021, the number of transactions on the Ethereum network has decreased sharply and reached its lowest level over the past year.
It’s expected that once reversal signals pop, the on-chain activity increases.
