Sell momentum persists as multiple indicators confirm resistance
On the hourly chart, ET is trading below both the MA-20 at $20.23 and the MA-50 at $20.27, while on the daily timeframe, it remains above the MA-200 at $19.41. The Ichimoku Kijun on the daily is acting as immediate resistance at $20.2. From a technical standpoint, RSI is at 37.24, suggesting a sell bias, with both MACD and ADX also indicating sell conditions. Stoch RSI and CCI are in oversold territory, pointing to possible seller exhaustion, whereas Bull/Bear Power shows intraday domination by sellers. The Awesome Oscillator remains neutral, and there are no significant divergences between momentum and oscillators in the short term.
Range-bound downside risk as prospects for recovery remain weak
In the short term, the expected price range for ET is $19.54 to $20.22 over the next 2–3 trading days. The probability of an upward move is assessed as very low, with a high likelihood of downside continuation. The most likely scenario is continued consolidation within this corridor, though a break above $20.2 could prompt a recovery toward upper range levels, while a drop below $19.54 would open further downside risk.
Earlier, analysts noted that Energy Transfer was experiencing persistent short-term bearish momentum, with technical signals pointing to ongoing downside risk. The current analysis strengthens this view, as downside continuation remains likely unless ET can reclaim resistance above $20.20, making a close watch on the $19.54 support level critical for assessing near-term risk.
