Our last comprehensive breakdown of ETH USD was posted on posted on the 15th of January and we outlined that after a break above the 175$ resistance level, we should expect price to rise to 199$ and 230$ respectively. We gave another interim update on the 21st of January advising those that had entered the ETH long position after spikes to 180$ had occurred to stay in their long positions and our stop loss of 154$ would be kept in tact. Exactly this occurred and lows were achieved at 156$ keeping our stops in tact and keeping us in our long positions. Price is currently trading at 190$ with highs made at 195$ just under our 199$ resistance level and our first price target. For those that have been in this position since 175$, we would advice to move stops to entry at 175$ and more specifically at 174$ to avoid stop hunting. Please let this long position to continue to run till 230$ but more conservatively 227$ to avoid our stops not being hit. For those that have not entered a position yet, I will prescribe to you the exact details of finding a good long entry on ETH USD.
- On the daily chart, we can see that ETH had hit the roof just below the main resistance level of 199$. We can also observe that momentum indicators on the daily are forming a bearish divergence (specifically the RSI/ROC indicator) and EMA and MA supports are at the 175$ price level. Now, if we zoom into the 4 hourly TF, we can observe that a key level of support is at the 183$ level with main supports only being found at the 180$ level before bullish price action resumes.
- Now, we would be looking for long positions to be opened for those that have not already done so at the 180$ level with stops being at 160$. For those already in long positions, we would advice that you keep stops at 174$.
- We still expect take profits to be hit at 199$ and 227$. The maximum level which price could ascend to is 270$ and we would reopen longs after a break of the 230$ level to this price level. However, it is important to note that this is less likely and we worry that price will be fatigued after 230$ - none the less, this is something we will plan for. We even have the option to move stop loss to 199$ after the 227$ price level is hit moving our take profit level higher to 250$.
