I've been observing ETH in the last two weeks (since I short-sold some). Compared to all other coins, this one has the longest and most resilient effort of spoofing I've ever seen.
Basically, buy orders worth hundreds or thousands of ETH are placed about 1 dollar under the last price. These orders are removed and replaced every 15 to 30 seconds. --- This is just normal spoofing. But this much effort is impressive.
For several times, including yesterday, a huge buy order goes above the last price and buys everything and the order gets replaced every 15 to 30 seconds with a even higher price. --- This is just normal pumping.
Then, there is speculative news about Amazon, which ostensibly registered yet another website. For this, the price of ETH jumps.
In my opinion, ETH has become a classic pump & dump. People who say it may be a good idea to invest in it after the bitcoin fork, be careful! It will probably go up, for a few hours, and then the final dump will come.
ETH is on its last leg of the Elliot waves. Fibonacci retracement suggests 100 to be the final support. This is a high risk coin. I would stick with bitcoin or at least an altcoin that hasn't been pumped.
