Ethereum (ETH), Price Analysis on The Weekly Chart 

The price of ETH is struggling to stay afloat following the closing of the weekly candle bearish. This week’s new bearish outlook comes ahead of the FOMC meeting. 

The ETH price showed some relief with a move to $1370. But this was short lived as news of an increasing rate hike harmed it. Price dropped to $1250 per week before rebounding to $1300. 

To keep the price of ETH from dropping below its critical support, it must reach $1,500. If this pattern continues, we may see ETH prices breaking $1,200 support and dropping to $1,024, a higher price that is in demand.

The price for Ethereum is resisting breaking above $13,324 at the moment. We could see ETH falling to below its key $1,200 support. Sell orders will not be stopped by this support.
