Ethereum Price Analysis for Dec 29: Here’s Key Support to Hold for Run to $4,200

ETH-0,08%

Ethereum shows bullish momentum, potentially leading to a run if the key support level holds.

Ethereum (ETH) is seeing strong upward momentum, with its price hitting $3,016 amid a notable 2.7% increase in the last 24 hours. This surge suggests Ethereum might be in a bullish phase, but the key question is whether it can maintain this momentum. The current price is based on the upper end of the 24-hour range between $2,926.99 to $3,049.93, indicating that Ethereum is testing significant resistance levels.

If the price manages to break above the $3,050 mark, the next resistance level could be near $3,100, with a potential push towards $3,200 if the upward trend continues. On the downside, if Ethereum pulls back, the $2,900 to $2,920 zone appears to be a solid support range, where buyers might step in to prevent further declines.

In terms of broader performance, Ethereum has shown impressive resilience over the past 24 hours, gaining 2.7%. However, the 14-day performance shows a pullback of 4%, highlighting the challenges Ethereum faced in the prior two weeks

Developing Bullish Momentum?

In terms of momentum indicators, Ethereum is showing mixed signals. The current price of $3,016 places ETH near the upper end of its recent range, with the daily candlestick chart showing a steady move upward.

Ethereum 1-Day Price ChartEthereum 1 Day Price ChartHowever, the Awesome Oscillator (AO) at -75.82 is still in the red, indicating that while Ethereum is gaining some ground, bearish momentum remains present. However, the oscillator has recently turned green, a sign of developing bullish momentum if it can run to the positive end.

Further, despite touching the overbought territory, the Stochastic Oscillator’s current positioning shows Ethereum could maintain its upward movement if the momentum remains strong.

However, caution is advised as Ethereum’s price approaches resistance levels near $3,050 and $3,100. If the price fails to break these key resistance zones and the indicators start to show signs of divergence, a pullback toward support levels in the $2,900 range could occur

Key Ethereum Level to Hold

Another immediate resistance also exists at $3,415. To reach $4,200 from the current price of $3,016, Ethereum would need to surge by approximately 39.3%.
