#Ethereum Price Analysis Hints 5% Drop Before Buyers Trigger a New Recovery Cycle
Ethereum Price Analysis: Amid the increasing indecisiveness in the crypto market, the Ethereum price has been in a sideways trend between $1827 and $1790. The coin prices show attempts to breach the aforementioned two levels indicating a narrow range formation in the daily chart. However, under the influence of a wedge pattern, the Ethereum price maintains its short-term trend on the downside.
Key Points:
- The ongoing correction in Ethereum price can be traced by a falling wedge pattern
- A potential breakdown above $1790 will set the ETH price on a 5% drop
- The intraday trading volume in Ether is $5.5 Billion, indicating a 7.4% loss.

By the press time, the Ethereum price traded at $1793, with an intraday loss of $1.7%. With today’s drop, the coin price challenges the $1790 range support indicating another breakdown attempt from sellers to maintain trend control.
A daily candle closing below $1790 will increase the underlying selling pressure and may plunge the price 5% down to hit the lower trendline of the falling wedge pattern. In theory, this pattern is known as a bullish continuation pattern which recuperates the bullish momentum once the prices breach their resistance trendline.

Thus, a potential retest to the lower trendline is likely to trigger a bullish reversal and initiate a new recovery cycle within the pattern. However, the ongoing correction in the Ethereum price will prolong until the wedge pattern is intact.
Therefore, for the Ethereum price to ride a sustained rally the prices need to break above the overhead trendline.
