Ethereum price retreat for a second consecutive day testing the lower band of the recent trading range. The number two cryptocurrency by capitalization failed several times to break above the 450 mark, and that gave the sellers the courage to step in and push the price 30 dollars lower. The correction, for now, doesn’t threat the bullish momentum as the price holds above the rising trend line that started back in March.
