Ethereum moved up by 3 percent today to reach a price of roughly $1,920. While the green candles offer some relief to holders, the asset is struggling to gain enough momentum to push past the $2,000 mark. The current recovery feels fragile as technical indicators show signs of weakness.

Heavy liquidation clusters are sitting right above the current price level. This means that a large number of positions are waiting to be closed, which creates natural resistance for the buyers. If Ethereum cannot find the volume to push through these sell orders, the price may continue to stall or drift lower.

Traders are now watching to see if this move is a legitimate start to a trend or just a temporary bull trap. A sustained close above the $2,000 psychological level is needed to convince the market that the bulls are back in control. For now, expect some choppy trading until the asset clears these immediate obstacles.
