Ethereum, trading above $2,200, continues to rebound from a long-term support line near $1,800, up from $1,550 a year earlier. However, the second-largest cryptocurrency remains below its 50- and 200-week moving averages, indicating a bearish market sentiment. By all accounts, Ethereum is no longer a good choice for a ‘buy and hold’ strategy. However, right now is a relatively good time to buy for a holding period of up to a year, with the potential for a twofold increase.
