Fortunately, the trend is bullish with higher highs and higher lows being created, suggesting a bullish outlook for Ethereum price.
As it stands, the price of Ethereum has been on an upward trend since the beginning of the week, essentially reversing last week’s declines. Therefore, the price has moved from bearish to neutral according to the weekly outlook and is now moving towards an uptrend.
All that remains is for the Ethereum price to continue this upward trend and surpass the weekly MA50 (50-day moving average). According to crypto analyst InvestingScope, a successful push above this level would not only signal the end of Ethereum’s prolonged consolidation, but also pave the way for a rally towards the channel’s upper trendline.
ETH on its way to recording new highs

A break above the MA50 on the weekly timeframe would confirm the shift from consolidation to bullish momentum, attract new buying interest, and pave the way for Ethereum to create a higher high within the Channel Up structure.

“When this happens, aim for no less than the all-time high (TP=4,900),” the analyst said.
At the time of writing, Ethereum is trading at $2,631.
