Ethereum (ETH) Price Analysis February 27, 2020

Since February 14, the bulls were unable to push Ethereum above the $286 overhead resistance. On each attempt at the resistance, the bulls will be repelled. This scenario continued until three tops are formed. In other words, a bearish triple top pattern is formed. This pattern sometimes serves as a reversal pattern where the previous trend is being terminated.

At other times when price breaks the neckline, the objective is accomplished. Lastly, the upward move will resume once the neckline is broken. From the price action, the upward move has resumed after the breaking of the neckline.

We expect the current support at $220 to hold as the uptrend resumes to retest the $286 overhead resistance. On the upside, the leading altcoin is likely to move up to $320, if the $286 resistance is breached. However, if the bulls fail to break the resistance at $286, a sideways move will ensue.
