Crypto Analysis Report 8-20-18 Ethereum…The Bear Trap Didn't Work, So I Reset The Chart

I last spoke about Ethereum about three weeks ago, unfortunately, the bear trap didn't work. 

<center>[Crypto Analysis Report 8-3-18 Ethereum…Setting Up For A Bear Trap At $345](https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@rollandthomas/crypto-analysis-report-8-3-18-ethereum-setting-up-for-a-bear-trap-at-usd345)</center>

So, I reset the charts and started over.  The last strong origin of an up move was at the weekly demand at $250.  The last strong origin of a down move was at the weekly supply at $775.  

![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPj2HKeQZwQSkZyYGrzSSbWFRkgZHMvg3UwAwpHA4E3RG/image.png)

$250 is low on the curve and $775 is high on the curve, but I broke the curve into quadrants.  The lowest quadrant at the $250 level gives you permission to go long, while the highest quadrant gives you permission to go short.   The lower middle quadrant gives you permission to go long if trying to get into a trade or permission to take profit if in a trade short.   The upper middle quadrant gives you permission to go short if trying to get into a trade or permission to take profit if in a trade long.

If the buyers can hold the low at $250 and take out the sellers at $360, Ethereum has a chance of rising to $520 medium term.  For me to take Ethereum serious, I need to see price take out the sellers at $360, close above the 21 EMA and the daily down trendline.  The trade set-up is to go long on a pull back.

Thanks Rolland for the analysis.  I can add some news that came out today.  The Winklevoss twins who have been rejected 2 times have now started a governing body to of super crypto people to work with the SEC for crypto regulation.  They name the focus topics that all line up with the reasons their previous two applications have been rejected.  The article said the there are a total of 9 ETFs in application and up for review now this month for approval.  If we get an ETF approved, the money will flow from two sources.  First from institutional investors, since they certainly will not buy cryptos and hold them directly.  Secondly, you open up an easy way to invest in cryptos without the complication that we all have learned to deal with.

You are welcome and great insight @morseke1.  So they have crypto lobbyist...if so, very smart move as every other industry has them.  Sooner or later the SEC will have no choice to approve them....there is so much cash sitting and the US will need to stay competitive with other countries.

Fundamentals are tough for ETH as it seems that public ICO market has really dried out.  Given the amount of ICO funds in ETH available for sell, it will be a tough balance to get to at higher levels.  I think we trade at a tight range until something changes in the protocol.

Very interesting point, that's probably what happened to Neo as well.

excellent analysis as always - I think $355 USD is possible short term, getting us close to your $360 USD.
