Ethereum price action has seen strong signs of recovery over the past days. After a quick rebound from the $2,300 low, which was set on the 24th of February, ETH/USD broke the previous high and moved to $2,850 next resistance.

Therefore, a clear higher high was set, indicating a change in the overall direction. From there, a strong higher low was set at $2,600 on the 27th of February, further strengthening the trend reversal.

Yesterday, the Ethereum price continued to advance, breaking past $2,850 previous resistance. More upside was seen until $2,950, where the market formed consolidation for most of today. However, another quick spike higher followed over the past hours, likely indicating the new higher high has been set.

Ethereum price analysis: Conclusion 

Ethereum price analysis is bearish today as we have seen a strong spike higher to $3,000 over the last hours met with clear rejection. Therefore, we assume ETH/USD has set a strong higher high and now looks to retrace some of the gains.
