Ethereum is approaching the psychologically important $2,000 level after extending its recovery from the June low near $1,505. The altcoin trades around $1,930 at the time of writing after 2% daily gains, while continuing to form higher lows inside an ascending channel.

Ethereum was rejected near $1,930 and subsequently fell through the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement. The decline has returned ETH to the former resistance area that blocked buyers for almost 10 days before the breakout. That makes the current pullback a direct test of the new market structure.
