ETH Price Faces Pullback Risk Amid Contradictory Technical Signals

Ethereum's price has been experiencing weakness in the short term despite its positive long-term outlook. This decline suggests increasing risks on the downside before its next possible rise.

At the time of writing, ETH is trading at $2,459.2 with a 24-hour trading volume of $16.78 billion and a market cap of $299.78 billion. Ethereum price decreased by 2.55% over the last 24 hours.

Crypto analyst Crypto Patel presented an optimistic outlook on the long-term outlook for the Ethereum price, stating that its potential is not limited to merely the $15,000 mark. He emphasized that short-term fluctuations in the price of Ethereum should be viewed as a separate topic compared to the adoption story for the project.

However, current technical analysis shows that ETH might encounter further troubles before seeing any recovery. The MACD technical indicator signals caution, with a MACD of 117.79 below the signal line at 131.96 and the histogram in negative territory at -14.17.
