Crypto Expert Predicts Ethereum (ETH) Price; Time To Buy?

The price of Ethereum (ETH) is continuing to swing sideways as traders continue to be confused about whether or not the cryptocurrency market has reached its bottom. In the wake of the FTX scandal, analysts are of the opinion that the market has already reached its lowest point and a trend reversal is due.

Can Ethereum (ETH) Break Resistance?

While the price of Bitcoin is continuing to be under pressure due to worries of miner capitulation and bankruptcy filings, Ethereum is showing strength by gaining close to 9% in the past week with a possibility of rallying towards  the $1,550 price zone.

With the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics today released November’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) data of 7.1%, down from 7.7% in October, Ethereum broke past $1300 to hit $1325 where it currently trades and faces stiff resistance.

While the Ethereum (ETH) price shows strength at these levels and can hold on to it, traders and potential buyers can drive the price of the altcoin to revisit the $1420 mark, a 7.5% high from its current market price.

Furthermore, popular crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe, predicts that Ethereum can even surpass the $1420 mark and potentially hit $1550, if it’s able to break past the resistance.

#Ethereum faces crucial resistance here, which is the area at $1,325 to break.

If that breaks, we can see $1,550, possibly.

Also, if technical parameters are considered, the Ethereum chart clearly shows that the ETH price is due for a rally. Its relative strength index (shown in purple) dropped below 30 in early November and has now gradually been going up again.

In addition, ETH’s 30-day moving average (shown in red) has lagged behind its 200-day average (shown in blue) for the entirety of the year, indicating that a change towards more favourable price movement is long overdue.
