Potential inverse head and shoulders target reached on EthereumWell... nearly reached at this stage anyway. In a similar vein to Dow Theory (in which you would normally expect that the Dow Jones Industrial Average would rise alongside the Dow Jones Transportation Index, the Nasdaq Composite, the SP500 and the Russell 2000 indices), let's suppose you would expect that Ethereum would rise alongside Bitcoin and the other altcoins.
Let's face it, Ethereum has had a great run recently, but what has Bitcoin been doing over the past month in particular? Literally nothing. Zero, zilch, nada... But why am I bringing up caution at this stage whilst everyone is so bullish about Ethereum? Let's scale out. If you look very far out to earlier this year, there was spike down in February for Ethereum (which formed a 'left shoulder' downward), and further retracement in share price downward to the ultimate low in April two months later to form the 'inverted head', followed by upward movement to form the inverted 'right shoulder' in late June.
This allows us to draw a 'neckline' at around about the 2880 level. Extending calculations from this neckline to the inverted head provides a range of approximately 1400, but when utilising exact numbers utilising charting software, and extending this range upwards from the neckline northwards provides a potential target of 4,368.94, which is fairly close to where we've been recently (the high of 4,333.13 about 2 hours ago at the time of writing).
Unless Bitcoin can get itself moving, as well as Ethereum turn around with respect to the one hourly momentum, tread cautiously and consider the possibility that the target may be reached of this head and shoulders target for Ethereum (thus, neutral bias at this stage, with potential to turn bearish).
