The Ethereum<\/a> price demolition<\/strong> is in progress at press time. Even though bulls remain optimistic, ETH technical candlestick formation points to further weakness<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In the last trading day alone, ETH is down, sinking a worrying eight percent versus the USDT.<\/strong><\/p>\n The event of this week alone has seen prices crash below 2017 highs, and there are concerns that ETH may lose the $1k level.<\/strong><\/p>\n This psychological mark may be the last frontier for ETH and is a closely watched reaction line in the immediate term. For bears, the momentum from early this week could be the hammer that will break determined bulls holding and rejecting bears.<\/p>\n In the mid of the sell-off, Mike Novogratz<\/strong> believes Ethereum would hold at $1k. During the Morgan Stanley Financials Conference<\/strong> on Monday, the billionaire investor remained bullish, saying the recent move down could be climactic for Ethereum.<\/p>\n “Ethereum should hold around $1,000, which is $1,200 right now. Bitcoin is around $20,000, $21,000, and it is $23,000, so you are much closer to the bottom in crypto than you are where I think stocks are going to have another 15 to 20 percent decline<\/em>.”<\/p>\n In his view, he is optimistic that prices are near the bottom.<\/strong> Still, he warned that it might not be wise for traders to deploy capital at this time, considering the FED’s monetary policy<\/strong> stance. Like other central banks, the U.S. FED plans to raise interest rates further to tame rising inflation, wreaking havoc on citizens, and forcing prices to record levels.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n From the daily chart, Ethereum prices are under immense selling pressure<\/strong>. In a bear breakout formation, sellers are in a commanding position.<\/p>\n The massive sell-off of June 13 was confirmed on June 14. However, a Doji bar closing below the lower BB indicates possible undervaluation<\/strong>. Besides, there is a sharp rejection of lower prices, resulting in a long lower wick.<\/p>\n While sellers may double down, liquidating on attempts higher, bulls should closely track the performance of the asset. If prices print higher today, above $1.3k<\/strong>, buyers stand a chance.<\/p>\n On the other hand, sharp losses below yesterday’s lows in confirmation of early this week’s drawdown could see ETH tumble to $1k in a bear trend continuation pattern<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Technical charts courtesy of\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Trading View<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Disclaimer:\u00a0<\/strong>Opinions expressed are not investment advice.
