The post ETH eyes further recovery as price nears $4,200 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. TL;DR ETH is up 8.5% in the last 24 hours and is now trading above $4,100. The coin could extend its recovery if the daily candle closes above $4,232.  ETH tops $4,100 after Friday’s flash crash Ether, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, is recovering excellently following Friday’s crash. The market crash saw ETH briefly touch the $3,500 region as it lost over 30% of its value within an hour.

However, Friday’s downturn drove elevated volatility across all expiries, signaling expectations of sustained turbulence and a choppy road ahead,” Forster added.  ETH could surge higher if the daily candle closes above $4,232 resistance The ETH/USD 4-hour chart is bearish and inefficient thanks to Friday’s price action. ETH failed to find support around the daily level at $4,488 last week and dumped by over 20% on Friday. However, it has recovered slightly, closing above $4,150. At press time, ETH hovers at around $4,160. Like Bitcoin, Ethereum’s MACD still supports the bearish view but could change soon as the buying pressure increases.
