Ethereum price slides: Can $2,000 support hold?
Ethereum has surrendered much of its recovery. Support between $2,000 and $2,039 now faces a key test as buyers look to revive the upward move.
Ethereum technical analysis: Recovery loses momentum
Following the double bottom discussed in July, Ethereum broke above the psychological $2,000 level in August. The subsequent recovery reached the $2,800 area, close to the $2,813 range ceiling identified in October. That advance is now being tested.
Ether (USD) trades at around $2,088 in the supplied chart, below its 100-day exponential moving average. The monthly pivot area near $2,400 has also given way, while the latest recovery failed to secure a sustained move above the 38.2% level of the plotted Fibonacci projection at $2,333.
The RSI(34) sits below the 48.5 threshold used in this analysis, indicating weak momentum for now.
Ethereum outlook: $2,000 support holds the key
The $2,000–$2,039 zone combines psychological support with the former breakout area. Confirmed stabilisation here could support a recovery towards $2,333 and the monthly pivot near $2,400.
A sustained move above those hurdles would bring the 61.8% Fibonacci level at $2,614 back into view. Further strength could then open the way towards the $2,800–$2,813 high area, followed by $3,000.
A confirmed break below $2,000 would instead favour a deeper correction. The next technical reference would be the starting point of the Fibonacci projection near $1,877.
