Ethereum has seen some mixed price action throughout the past 24 hours, with the crypto reeling to lows of $900 before rebounding to $1,200, before once again facing a rejection and drifting lower.<\/p>\n
Bulls are now trying to flip $1,100 into support, as this level has proven to be vital for the crypto throughout the past couple of days.<\/p>\n
It remains unclear whether or not they will be successful, and one trader is noting that a bull case can be made for ETH so long as it holds above $1,012 in the day ahead.<\/p>\n
At the time of writing, Ethereum is trading up just under 2% at its current price of $1,110, which marks a notable surge from its 24-hour lows of $900.<\/p>\n
The cryptocurrency is now trying to flip $1,100 into support, but the selling pressure here indicates that it may see further near-term downside.<\/p>\n
A firm break below this level will likely lead it to re-test its $1,000 support, but where it trends next will undoubtedly depend largely on Bitcoin.<\/p>\n
One trader noted in a recent tweet that the lower-$1,000 region is the key level to be watching in the near-term.<\/p>\n
He believes that a continued defense of this level could allow the entire market to see significantly further momentum in the days to come.<\/p>\n
\n“ETH – Ethereum above $1,163 and my argument that the bottom is in is a lot stronger. Must hold $1,012 *if* retested as support for the argument to be valid as well. Overall, very bullish on Ethereum as I’ve mentioned quite a bit.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Bitcoin will undoubtedly shape Ethereum’s short-term price action, making it vital that BTC continues finding stability in the mid-$30,000 region.<\/p>\n
