With four consecutive bearish candles starting from an evening start pattern, ETH is back at $1800 levels. Currently, the intraday pullback of 5.79% creates a bearish engulfing candle and undermines the prevailing recovery. 

As the bearish trend gains momentum, the ETH price trend is likely to break below the $1867 previous low. The bearish turnaround reflects a bullish failure to sustain above the 20-day EMA line. 

Furthermore, the sudden turnaround has warned of a potential bearish crossover in the MACD and Signal lines. Thus, the technical indicators maintain a bearish viewpoint.

Institutions Show No Sign of Support

Despite several bullish indicators, institutional support for Ethereum has yet to materialize. Since March 5, ETH ETFs have not recorded any inflows, except for a single day on March 4, when they saw an inflow of $14.58 million.

On March 27, Ethereum ETFs experienced anet outflow of $4.22 million, driven by $2.21 million from one source and $2.01 million from Fidelity. As of March 27, the cumulative net inflow for Ethereum ETFs remains at $2.40 billion.

Ethereum Price Targets

Based on the daily price chart, the sudden downfall despite the declining institutional support warns of an extended correction. The immediate support level for ETH below the $1867 mark is at the $1542 horizontal level. 

This highlights a downside risk of nearly 18%. However, in case of a bullish comeback, the ETH price will likely reface the overhead supply zone at close to the $2000 psychological mark.
