Ethereum Classic (ETC) has remained strong after breaking out of its downtrend descending triangle with good volume, with the price aiming to rally to $30. The cryptocurrency market has appeared more stable this week, with significant price movements in Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). This new relief rally in the cryptocurrency market has benefited smaller coins like Ethereum Classic (ETC), which has shown real strength in breaking out of its long downtrend movement.

Although many altcoins have struggled to trend in a range market, the price of ETC has seen more of a downtrend move despite showing some price movement to the upside, which was short-lived as the price was rejected.

ETC fell from an all-time high of more than $180 to a region of $41 before rallying to a high of $75; the price of ETC faced further rejection to a range low of $46, where it formed weak Support to hold sell-offs, but this proved futile as price continued to fall.

The price of ETC fell to a weekly low of $24 and immediately bounced, forming a price range in an attempt to break out.

With the market looking more promising, we could see ETC rally to a high of $30 with good volume, where the price has more room to trend higher.

ETC has a favorable overall structure, with a high probability of price retesting the $30 and higher ranges following a successful breakout from the range low. If ETC fails to break and hold above $31, a retest of $24 is possible.
