The price declined as low as $230. However, market buyers took turns to push them back upwards. This dilemma resulted in prices smashing the main resistance at $240and $235 areas respectively.

The RSI indicator first hit the 50.0 level during the price decline on June 15, 00:00 hours UTC. The sellers, however, substantiated stronger and the price went below it, plunging to 46.0 area. This indicated a transition towards a bullish tendency in the elevated timeframe.

The dive below the $235 has now twisted Ethereum to the impartial bias. Eth/USD would have to climb above $235 to lean bullish again. A closing candle below $230 would likely turn Ethereum bearish in the short term.
