The daily trading chart shows that Ethereum is back in the bearish zone as its current price is trading below the 50-day exponential moving average (50 EMA). Meanwhile, the daily relative strength index (RSI) is at 32.50, denoting the largest altcoin’s position on the border of the oversold zone. 

If the current trend reverses, ETH will experience a bullish rally to surpass the $1700 mark again. If the momentum continues, it will breach $1750 and even advance to surpass the $1800 level. On the other hand, there is a possibility that Ethereum will experience a further downtrend. If it occurs, the price will breach the nearest support level of $1600. In a worst-case scenario, the downtrend will potentially bring it below $1540.
