On 12 May, Bitcoin sunk to $26.7k, and Ethereum Classic touched the $16 mark at its lows. Since then, the price has bounced quite a bit. Yet, with Bitcoin stuck within a range of $30.7k and $28.7k, the altcoin market has not initiated a recovery. The fear in the market remained strong, and rallies are for selling. This likely holds true for Ethereum Classic too, and the $24 level saw the price pullback to $22.

However, it appeared to suggest that the buyers had some power in the market.

Now the question is- Could Ethereum Classic continue to climb? It certainly appeared so on the hourly timeframe.

A move beneath $21.6 would likely signal bearish strength in the coming days.
