In late January and early February, Ethereum Classic appeared to break its long-term downtrend as it climbed from its $21.9 lows to $37.5 highs. This was a little more than 70% in gains over a time period of nearly three weeks. Alas, since then, Ethereum Classic has turned south on the charts.
At the time of writing, the bearish market structure appeared to be on the verge of shifting towards the bullish side.

ETC tested it as an area of supply before descending to the local lows at $24.42, where it has bounced from.
A set of Fibonacci retracement levels (yellow) were plotted based on ETC’s drop from $33.67 to $24.42 and the $26.6 level presented itself as the 23.6% retracement of this drop. Over the past few hours, the price has climbed above $26.6 – A bullish development.
