Ethereum briefly dipped to intraday lows of $885 before rebounding. The RSI dropped slightly from the overbought zone after the minor correction. The ETH/USD pair may consolidate briefly before the next major move. ETH/USD could resume a new rally with the target objective of its previous ATH at $1,433.

On the contrary, this bullish view will be invalidated if the pair turns down and breaks below the $885 support and the MA 50 at $785. Another major support level sits at $648 coinciding with the MA 200 close. The ETH/USD pair is only bullish while trading above the $800 mark, key resistance is found at the $1,168 and the $1,200 levels.
