The shorter time frame charts illustrate the strong bullish momentum ETH has enjoyed in the past 12 hours. The coin now surges towards its immediate resistance range at $1866 and if a price correction were to occur in the coming hours then ETH may be aided by its tried and tested support levels such as $1665 and $1557 which helped the bounce back in the recent past.
For traders, long positions are ideal in the current ETH market as the price expected to head towards the $1800-$1900 level in the coming day’s time.
Rationale
The technical indicators for the coin paints a bullish outlook for ETH in the short term. The MACD indicator has undergone a bullish crossover with the signal line going below the MACD line. This is normally a sign that the price may see a surge in the coming hours. The RSI indicator concurs with such a verdict as it now is placed well into the overbought zone highlighting that the buyers outnumber ETH’s sellers.

Conclusion
Ethereum’s price has been on a recovery run since 25 March and the upward momentum hasn’t faded. The coin is currently surging on the price charts and in the short term, a move to its $1866 range seems highly likely at the moment. However, if the price were to be subject to a price correction, then the coin’s nearby support levels are likely to help it bounce back on the charts. Traders in such a scenario can benefit from long positions.
