Over the past two months, the ETH/USD technical chart shows a short-term range bound rally. The recent reversal from the descending trendline has tumbled the altcoin by 13.5%, bringing it to local support of $2600. Can buyers revert the ongoing sell-off, or we will revisit the January low support at $2300?

Key points: 

• The MACD indicators display a bearish crossover among the fast and slow line
• The ETH chart shows lower price rejection at $2600
• The intraday trading volume in Ether is $8 Billion, indicating a 35.37% loss.

The Ether price action squeezing up between the two converging trendlines indicates the formation of a symmetrical triangle pattern. On 1st March, the altcoin crashed to the weekly support at $2600 after failing to overcome the descending resistance.

The second-largest cryptocurrency exchange hands at $2619, indicating a 13.5% loss in the last four days. The sellers are attempting to pull the altcoin below the $2600 support. If they succeed, the price will retest the bottom support trendline($2245).

However, if the bulls rebound again on the rising trendline, the ETH price would stay in range-bound action for a few days.

The crypto traders should wait till the price breach either of these trendlines. Because once they do, the ETH price could provide a strong directional move on the breakout side.
