At the time of writing, the ETH price is dangling at one hundred and ninety dollars ($190.79) mark and holding. The price movement is likely to push upwards as soon as it finds support higher than the current support levels. While certain factors indicate the pattern is following-up to Bitocin, three major Ethereum price metrics are most important.

Ethereum price factors: Trading volume

In the last twenty-four hours, the total volume hit 1.12 million ETH. The rise of transactions worth more than a hundred and twelve thousand dollars in just twenty-four hours indicates the consolidation of funds and increased trading.

These positive metrics highlight the increased activity of Ethereum, but they are neither indicative of their catalyst-nature for further movements nor the idea of adoption.

It is of interest to note that Ethereum’s hard fork, namely ‘Istanbul,’ is also scheduled for release later this month.
