Ethereum price is in a corrective decrease versus the US Dollar, while bitcoin<\/a> is consolidating. ETH price might extend its decline to $172 before it could climb again.<\/em><\/p>\n After forming a short term top near $186, ETH price started a downside correction against the US Dollar. It broke the $180 support level and the 100 hourly simple moving average to enter a negative zone. Moreover, the recent decline in bitcoin<\/a> pushed Ethereum below the $178 level. The decline was such that the price tested the $175 support level and it is currently consolidating losses.<\/p>\n It corrected above the $176 level plus 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the $186 high to $175 swing low. However, the previous support area near the $180 level is acting as a resistance. Besides, the 100 hourly SMA is also preventing gains near $179. More importantly, yesterday\u2019s highlighted key bearish trend line is still active with resistance near $179 on the hourly chart of ETH\/USD.<\/p>\n Above the trend line, the next key resistance is near the $180 level. It coincides with the 50% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the $186 high to $175 swing low. If there is an upside break above the trend line, the 100 hourly SMA, and $180, then the price could start a fresh increase. The next key resistance area is near the $185 level, above which the price could accelerate higher.<\/p>\n On the downside, there is a decent support forming near the $175 level. However, it seems like there could be a downside spike before the price starts a fresh increase above the $180 level.<\/p>\nEthereum Price Analysis<\/h2>\n
