Ethereum gaining altcoin dominance?
Updated
Hello All,
So far, as we have seen this current market, Ethereum--previously a strong performer-- has been under performing, however, it has a strong pattern here with the chance of a classic failure swing, as the second bottom could not approach the original bottom as closely. This failure swing is denoted by the yellow strokes on the chart.
There is a broadening wedge which I have been following for several months, and so far, following this pattern has been very fruitful. But, now the price action appears to be consolidating just above an important support and one of the strongest resistance trendlines for Ethereum since the move to 360. The price objective of this broadening wedge is approximately 250 which would place ETH just above a strong resistance region. We are looking for strong movements above the resistance trendline which is in magenta or purple, after there maybe a retest of the breakout, otherwise, I believe price will power through to close to 250 with very little consolidation opportunities.
Currently, there is a small flag just under the resistance, and 179 is a strong support region; there is an extremely low probability for ETH to fail this breakout, and if it does, there is a great opportunity for good risk management.
Also, giving me a like and a follow will help motivate me to post more!
Best of luck and Stay Technical!

Note
It looks like the market might want to test lower price points before moving up. I am trying to find where that could be and I am thinking it could be around 175-172. If 179 does not hold as support. I'd like to still mention that there is a strong probability of this pattern breaking to the upside. In the end most cryptos will follow in the direction of BTC.Note
The Market looks like it wants to either consolidate or test lower price points after that move.
