The Daily Chart
On the daily timeframe, ETH has reached a support zone lastly tested on January 2021. Despite the severe drop, of over 30% this week alone, the bearish momentum is still high: The consecutive weekly red candlesticks indicate the bear’s complete dominance in the market.
Examining the chart below, the support zone in the range of $700-$880 is considered the area that currently has the potential to reverse the trend in the short term. Hence, buyers are likely to seek entrance to the market in this area.
If a reversal plays out, we can expect the price to increase and retest the horizontal resistance at $1300. However, because ETH had experienced a sharp drop, it shouldn’t be so easy to start a new healthy uptrend so soon.
Key Support Levels: $880 & $700
Key Resistance Levels: $1300 & $1500 & $1700
Moving Averages:
MA20: $1536

On-chain Analysis
Supply Outside Of Exchange
As shown below, when the supply of ETH outside of exchange drops, a price reduction is often followed. This supply will likely get deposited into the exchanges, increasing the selling pressure.
At present, this metric continues its downward trend. Therefore, the selling pressure is expected to persist until this slope is inverted.
