Ethereum price action has seen a steady decline over the past weeks. After a strong selloff on the 4th of December, a new swing low was found around $3,600.

From there, ETH/USD managed to reclaim 25 percent as it set a major lower high at $4,500. Over the following weeks, ETH slowly traded lower, reaching towards the previous low by the 13th of December.

A clear descending trendline of resistance was established along the way, indicating a strong bearish market structure. However, Since last week, we have seen the Ethereum price action set higher lows, meaning that the trading range is currently rapidly decreasing. Therefore, a break higher could be finally seen over the next days as sellers are finally exhausted.
