Later, sellers appeared and managed to push the price down. There was a break below the 100 hourly simple moving average during the recent downside move. Moreover, the price also cleared the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the wave from the 0.00182BTC low to 0.00206BTC high. There was a retest of the last swing low of 0.00182BTC where buyers protected further losses. The price is currently recovering, as there is a chance of a double bottom pattern. However, the upside move won’t be easy for ETC. An initial resistance is around a bearish trend line formed on the hourly chart of ETC/BTC (data feed via Simplefx).

The only warning sign for the sellers is a double bottom pattern near 0.00182BTC. Hourly MACD – The MACD is currently in the bearish zone with no signs of a recovery. […]
