This means that even if $ETH were to step on the path of recovery, returning to its peak will take time.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator is assuredly bullish, and so are the moving averages.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday, bulls briefly drove $ETH to $3,499, but the token bounced back to $3,440. Now, $3,500 is a critical psychological resistance level $ETH must clear to strengthen the bullish trajectory.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-360416\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-03-at-12-04-36-Ethereum-price-today-ETH-to-USD-live-price-marketcap-and-chart-CoinMarketCap.png?w=640&amp;resize=700%2C361\" alt=\"Ethereum price\" width=\"700\" height=\"361\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-03-at-12-04-36-Ethereum-price-today-ETH-to-USD-live-price-marketcap-and-chart-CoinMarketCap.png?w=941 941w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-03-at-12-04-36-Ethereum-price-today-ETH-to-USD-live-price-marketcap-and-chart-CoinMarketCap.png?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-03-at-12-04-36-Ethereum-price-today-ETH-to-USD-live-price-marketcap-and-chart-CoinMarketCap.png?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-03-at-12-04-36-Ethereum-price-today-ETH-to-USD-live-price-marketcap-and-chart-CoinMarketCap.png?w=750 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\"><\/p>\n<p>If $ETH fails to break above the $3,500 zone, it may find support at $3,420.
