ETH price dipped below $3,150 and $3,120 to enter a short-term bearish zone.<\/p>\n<p>The bears even pushed the price toward $3,000.

Besides, there is a connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $3,175 on the hourly chart of ETH\/USD.<\/p>\n<p>If there is another upward move, the price could face resistance near the $3,150 level or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,273 swing high to the $3,026 low.
