Ethereum - "FOMO" is likely to punish buyers
For about a month now, we repeated that bullish calls for a trend reversal and bottom were false. We continue to stick to this narrative also today. Indeed, recently, we noted that the price of Ethereum started to appear attractive for short position (re)entry in the range between 1500 USD - 1600 USD and above.
We believe drying up liquidity in the market suggests trouble ahead with institutional players utilizing the recent bounce to sell their positions. In addition to that, higher interest rates, a weakening economy, and regulatory obstacles continue to threaten the cryptocurrency market.
As a result, we think the bear market rally nears its end. Therefore, in accordance with our assessment, we would like to set a price target for ETHUSD at 1 000 USD.

The chart above shows the relationship between price and volume. It can be seen that after bullish breakouts, volume declined, hinting at the temporary evaporation of buyers. Now, we want to see a build-up in volume accompanying a declining price to confirm our bearish thesis.
