In the four-hour time frame, Ether’s price is aiming at reaching $3,911, which coincides with the 2.618 Fibonacci Extension. In case of bearish sentiment, Ether price will find a robust support level above $3,285, after rebounding from the same level three times in the past week. Market Picture As the bullish November approaches the end, Ethereum’s volatility is expected to continue in the remaining weeks of the year. Moreover, Ethereum’s Open Interest (OI) has spiked to a new all-time high of above $24 billion, signaling heightened demand from FOMO traders. According to market data analysis by Coinglass, around $850 million will be liquidated from the ETH market if the altcoin reaches $4k.
