The Ethereum price has been surging towards its next resistance at $1,800, but the sellers in the market were pushing the value of the digital asset lower. Ethereum’s value found support at $1,643, after which it bounced higher but has been seeing a retracement at the time of writing.
As the value continued to be pushed and pulled by the traders, we may see a shortfall in the market.
Reasoning
The Ethereum market has been opening up for more volatility. The Bollinger Bands diverged which was a sign of increasing activity in the market, whereas, the signal line remained under the candlesticks. This indicated that the pressure was still dominant from the bulls.
Meanwhile, the digital asset just hit the overbought zone and dropped. There was selling in progress but currently, the market was holding and paying the high value for ETH. The Awesome Oscillator has been indicating a reduced momentum in the market, which could lead for the price to witness another drop.

Conclusion
The above chart of Ethereum has been noting that the price of the digital asset has climbed much higher. This price has not been supported by the traders in the market which has enabled the rise of the selling momentum. This may push its value closer to the support at $1,643. However, with the present volatility in the market, the users may want to trade cautiously.
