$ETHUSD and the 1900 Psychological Hump
Watching $ETHUSD around the 1900 level today. It's not a hard technical line drawn from a pivot high or anything fancy, more of a psychological barrier that seems to be acting like a sticky note on the chart. We've been bumping up against it, peeking over briefly at 1898.04, then backing off a bit.
From a purely observational standpoint, it feels like a battleground. Bulls pushing to establish above it, bears trying to keep it contained below. If we can get a sustained close above, say, 1910-1920 on some decent volume, that might suggest a clearer path upwards. However, if we keep failing to hold above 1900 and start seeing closes back towards the 1870s, then the idea of a breakout above this current range would be invalidated for me. It's always a bit of a toss-up with these round numbers; sometimes they break easily, other times they act like brick walls. Just my two satoshis.
It's always interesting how these psychological levels get treated, sometimes more so than actual technical zones. I'd be curious to see what kind of volume is accompanying these bounces off 1900.
