Since January, the price of Ethereum has been trading with sudden highs and lows, leaving some traders waiting for markets to settle. After Ether dropped roughly 12% after its 20 February ATH of $2,042.93, the asset was trading at $1,790.94, at press time. However, over the last 24 hours, ETH endured an 8.4% drop and a 0.7% drop in the past week.
Regardless of the price drop, popular Chinese journalist, Colin Wu, believes that certain metrics indicated a bullish trajectory for the price of Ethereum.
ETH Reserve
In his tweet, Wu said that when ETH fell below $1,900, exchanges’ ETH reserve was only 20.63049 million, “a record low.”
Liquidations
Along with Ether’s rally to over the $2K mark, liquidations surged as well. For instance, on 20 February, when Ether was trading at $2004.71, more than $373 million of long positions were liquidated.

In addition, Wu claimed that the “advancement” of ETH2.0 and “large hoarders” have caused a diversion of exchange reserves and added:
The ETH market is facing a shortage of liquidity, which will drive prices to continue to rise.
Addresses
Moreover, IntoTheBlock’s Global In/Out of the Money analysis indicated that Ether had an average price of $1,690, with 2 million addresses having bought 8.9 million Ether at this support.
