Ethereum Price Eyes Fresh Upward Move
Ethereum price struggled to exceed the $3,800 resistance and subsequently corrected, similar to Bitcoin. It fell below the $3,650 and $3,600 support levels, retesting the $3,550 support.
A low was established at $3,557, and the price is now attempting an upward movement. It has moved above the $3,600 and $3,620 levels, testing the 50% Fib retracement level of the drop from the $3,762 swing high to the $3,557 low.
Currently, Ethereum is trading above $3,600 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. The price faces resistance near the $3,650 level, where a bearish trend line is also forming.
The first major resistance is around the $3,685 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the decline from the $3,762 swing high to the $3,557 low. Main resistance is forming near $3,750.
A decisive move above $3,750 could propel the price toward the $3,800 resistance. An upside break beyond $3,800 might lead to further gains, potentially targeting the $3,880 or even $3,920 resistance zones.
Another Slide In ETH?
If Ethereum does not clear the $3,650 resistance, another decline may occur. Initial support is near the $3,600 level, with major support at the $3,580 zone.
A drop below $3,580 may push the price toward the $3,550 support. Additional losses could drive the price to the $3,440 support level, with the next key support at $3,350.
