However, it is important to remember that the risk of a selloff rises as coins are rising on exchange wallets.

Given the weak macro environment, the latest price bounce may be short-lived. Low trading volumes during the US Independence Day holiday may have also factored into its sharp rise.

On the other hand, others believe that this show of strength from ETH could be a sign of a fresh rally. This is mostly because the ETH price is now trading above $1,100 and the 100 hourly simple moving average. There was also a break above a key contracting triangle with resistance near $1,075 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD, which means the pair could rise above the $1,159 resistance zone.
