Ethereum price action has seen bullish momentum slowly fade after the $1,650 resistance reached last week. Quick reaction lower followed to $1,550, where a higher local low was set. 

An immediate move higher did not follow over the weekend, indicating that buyers are finally exhausted. Therefore, we do not expect another higher high to be set above $1,650 over the next few days.

Likely Ethereum will look to break past the $1,600 local resistance over the next 24 hours. However, since the momentum is weak, a lower high below $1,650 is expected next.

Ethereum price analysis: Conclusion 

Ethereum price analysis is bullish today as we expect further recovery to be made above the $1,600 closest resistance. Likely another local high will be set, but the $1,650 previous high will not be reached immediately.
