Ethereum price action has reached further upside over the past week. Beginning the week with a bounce from $2,850 previous low, ETH/USD steadily gained another 12 percent to the $3,200 next major resistance.

From there, ETH saw a quick reaction lower late yesterday, retesting previous local support at $3,080 as support. Since then strong reaction higher has not been seen, indicating that further retracement will likely follow later in the weekend.

The next local support level is located around $3,000 previous major support. If the Ethereum price can set another higher low there, we should see a lot more upside next week, potentially leading to the $3,300 next major price milestone.  

Ethereum price analysis: Conclusion 

Ethereum price analysis is bearish today as we have seen quick retracement to $3,080 after previously setting a strong higher high at $3,200. Therefore bulls are still exhausted and a deeper retracement is needed before more upside can be tested next week.
