Since 17 March, Ethereum Classic [ETC] has been oscillating between $19 and $22.26. In the past few days, the price action consolidated narrowly below the channel’s mid-level of $20.66, only breaking out after Bitcoin [BTC] crossed $30K.
But the ETC hit a price ceiling at $22.26 and retraced to its range’s mid-point.

At press time, ETC’s value was $20.93, down by 0.93% but with an increased trading volume of over 100% in the past 24 hours, according to Coinmarketcap. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) had dropped to the neutral line – the price could go in either direction. In addition, the Average Directional Index (ADX) had a downtick, showing a weakening market structure.
On the other hand, the Money Flow Index (MFI) retreated from the overbought zone – an outflow of money from the ETC market, but the outflows were easing at press time. Ergo, ETC near-term bulls could defend the channel’s mid-point of $20.66 if BTC doesn’t fall below $30K. However, the hurdle at $21.49 must be cleared for a retest of the range’s upper boundary of $22.26 to occur.
Conversely, ETC could breach the $22.06 support, especially if BTC falls below $30K. But the plunge could slow at $20 or the channel’s lower boundary of $19. These levels could act as shorting selling targets in such a downswing scenario.
