Chart Art: Ether’s (ETH/USD) Long-term Trend Continuation Play

 Is Ether getting ready to extend a months-long uptrend?


The daily chart is saying “Bet.”


Here’s what I’m looking at on the daily time frame:


ETH/USD: Daily

As you can see, Ether (ETH/USD) has been showing higher highs and higher lows since hitting bottom at the $1,080 mark back in November.


The pair even jumped above its ascending channel pattern in April and reached the $2,140 area before settling back down to its $1,800 levels.


Are we looking at a chance to jump in ETH/USD’s uptrend?


The pair is consolidating at the $1,800 psychological handle, which lines up with the mid-channel zone on the chart.


Not only that, but $1,800 is also pretty close to the daily chart’s 100 SMA as well as the 50% Fibonacci retracement of March and April’s upswing.



The cherry on top of this sweet setup is a lowkey bullish divergence on the daily time frame.


Buying at current levels would make for a good entry if you’re confident that ETH/USD will soon retest its previous highs above $2,000.


Not feeling like buying ETH or selling USD these days?


You can also wait for retest of lower pullback points like the bottom of the channel near the 61.8% Fib lines if you’d rather wait for more attractive levels to short ETH/USD.


Good luck and good trading this one!
