Ethereum rebounded from support at $1710 (June lows) earlier this week, as it quickly surged back above $2000 on Wednesday. It then continued to surpass the 20-day moving average (MA) line and the 200-day MA, on Friday, along with breaking above a descending trend line that dates back to the start of June.
Yesterday, ETH managed to reach as high as $2200. There, it found resistance upon the critical 50-day MA and has since reversed back towards the $2100 price area, where it is trading as of writing these lines.
The following short-term 4-hour chart shows that ETH is trading inside a steep ascending price channel. The coin hit resistance at $2200 yesterday, provided by a 1.272 Fib Extnesion, and has since retraced to reach the lower boundary of the price channel.
