Ethereum price saw bearish momentum slowly return early this week. After previously setting strong higher high at $3,400 and retesting it, forming a double top, ETH/USD began to move lower again on the 17th of January.

Brief reversal and test of upside was seen on the 20th of January. However, ETH continued lower later in the day, quickly spiking below $2.900. 

Yesterday, the selloff continued, leading the Ethereum price to $2,500 next. Today bears continued to dominate, leading to the $2,300 mark being tested briefly. Over the past hours, ETH/USD has reacted higher, returning above $2,400, which could indicate an upcoming retracement after a more than 25 percent drop.

Ethereum Price Analysis: Conclusion 

Ethereum price analysis is bullish for the rest of the day as rejection for further downside can be seen over the last hours. The $2,300 mark has likely been established as the swing low from which ETH/USD will retrace.
