Ethereum falling on Thursday, no end in sight

Ethereum markets fell again on Thursday, breaking through a couple of serious technical levels, as the rout in crypto currency continues. Ethereum has been especially vulnerable as of late and shows no signs of life.

Ethereum markets broke down during trading on Thursday, slicing through the $440 level, an area that had offered a bit of support lately. I believe that the market will continue to look a bit rough, but at the end of the day, I find it very difficult to try to trade to the upside. In fact, if the $400 level gets broken through, it’s likely that we could go down to $350. Ethereum has been beaten up rather significantly lately, and Thursday saw the market drop 8% by the time the Americans woke up. This is not the way a healthy market reacts, but it does offer plenty of shorting opportunities on rallies. Currently, the $450 region looks to be massive resistance.

Ethereum markets broke down rather significantly during Thursday against the Euro as well, breaking below the €350 level, and reaching down towards the €325 level by the time the United States jumped on board. This point, I think that the target is probably €300, and any rally in this market, just as many other crypto currency markets, is going to be a reason to start selling. I suspect that the €360 level is massive resistance and will be very difficult to break above.

While Ethereum is not alone when it comes to breaking down, Ethereum has been especially hard-hit lately, and this does not look to be slowing down. If you have the ability to start shorting this market, I would do so every time it rallied, at least until we broke above €400, something that does not look likely to happen anytime soon.
