May 6, 2021 marked the all time high for the altcoin as it reached to $176.16 and ETC has been trying to reclaim those levels ever since. The altcoin had shown some signs of recovery after it’s recent plunge but all the bullish momentum has been eradicated as the bears have gained ascendancy.

Conclusion
ETC has seen a downtrend that has seen a fair share of it’s value being wiped out. The strong bearish market sentiment suggests further downwards movement for the asset across the short term. However, the $28 mark provides key support to the price action which ETC needs to hold onto for dear life. We can expect the price to consolidate here for a larger period from what was first anticipated before we see a possible uptrend.
Support:$28,next level at $27
Resistance: $42, next level at $48
