Technical Analysis of ETH/USD for November 8, 2023

Crypto Industry News:

Rain Lohmus, a renowned Estonian banker and financial market innovator, faced an extremely expensive problem. As the founder of LHV Bank, Lohmus was one of the first cryptocurrency enthusiasts. He has accumulated an impressive sum of Ethereum over the years. However, losing the access keys to the digital wallet cost him almost... half a billion dollars.

Lohmus, despite his financial resources and influence, learned firsthand the basic lesson of cryptocurrencies - losing private keys is tantamount to losing access to assets. In a statement to local radio, the banker admitted that the lost 250,000 ETH, which is a huge value, is beyond his reach.

He does not hide the fact that he tried to recover the keys. He even considered unusual methods, including creating artificial intelligence in his image. He wanted the AI to search his past for clues about the location of his keys. Ultimately, the inability to monitor the progress of such a project led him to abandon the idea.

The banker also expressed his opinion on the risks associated with independently controlling cryptocurrency keys. In his opinion, although cryptocurrencies provide the illusion of perfect decentralization, they are accompanied by other, often ignored threats.

Technical Market Outlook:

The ETH/USD pair had made a new swing high at the level of $1,911 and then the pull-back started. The next target for bulls is seen at the level of $2,027, but for now the market is consolidating the recent gains around the last high. The bulls are having problem to break above the level of $1,911 that had been tests multiple times already. The intraday technical resistance is seen at $1,900 and the intraday technical support is seen at $1,865. Please notice, in a case of a failure to breakout above the resistance, any violation of the level of $1,755 will open the road towards the key technical support seen at $1,520.

WR1 - $1,930

Trading Outlook:

The Ethereum market has been seen making lower highs and lower low since the swing high was made in the middle of the August 2022 at the level of $2,029. This is the key level for bulls, so it needs to be broken in order to continue the up trend. The key technical support is seen at $1,368, so as long as the market trades above this level, the outlook remains bullish.
