Key takeaways<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • ETH is trading above $3,100, up by less than 1% in the last 24 hours.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • The coin could rally towards the $3,500 psychological level if the bullish trend resumes.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    ETH continues to range above $3k<\/h2>\n

    The cryptocurrency market has had a positive start to the year, with Bitcoin reclaiming the $90k level. Ether is also trading above $3k once again, while XRP has reclaimed its position as the fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap.<\/span><\/p>\n

    However, the three leading cryptocurrencies have been ranging over the past few hours, with altcoins recording mixed performances. Bitcoin and Ethereum extend gains for the second consecutive day, crossing above $92,000 and $3,100, respectively, while XRP stabilizes near $2.00.<\/span><\/p>\n

    The technical indicators suggest that the bulls could regain control of the market and push Ether higher. However, with the weekly candle opening today, it would take a few hours before Ether\u2019s direction could become clear to traders.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Ether eyes $3,500 amid a bullish triangle pattern<\/h2>\n

    The ETH\/USD 4-hour chart is bearish and efficient as Ether has lost 1.7% of its value in the last seven days. At press time, ETH is trading at $3,113, above the local support trendline connecting the December 18 and 29 lows.<\/span><\/p>\n

    The momentum indicators suggest that the bulls are currently in control of the market. The RSI of 49 shows a fading bearish momentum. If the RSI crosses above the neutral 50, Ether\u2019s price could rally higher in the near term.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"ETH\/USD<\/p>\n

    The MACD lines are also close to crossing into the positive zone, reinforcing a bullish bias in the market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    If the bullish trend resumes, Ether could surpass the December 10 high of $3,260, with the next major resistance around the $3,500 psychological level.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    However, if the bearish trend persists, Ether could slip below the $3k level and test the support level around the December 18 low of $2,920.<\/span><\/p>\n
