Ethereum refreshes to a new 5-month high in the past 24 hours and breaches above $280 at $283 while currently trades at $276 with a bullish crossover and trend in the intraday. It was just when the greatest cryptocurrency by market capitalization—Bitcoin breached a resistance above $9.65k briefly but is back to trading around $9.5k.

Ethereum and XRP are a lot influenced by Bitcoin’s price movement, and since the latter is in a slow recovery mode, we can see the influential cryptos getting a push as well. Moreover, the 24-hour breakout of ETH against the USD has been stupefying, and this is not the time to short as we believe the steep breakout is possible soon.
