Ethereum Price Resistance Zone
In yesterday’s analysis, we saw a resistance band near $85 in ETH price against the US Dollar above $75. The price failed to break the $85-87 level, and started a downside move. During the downside move, it broke the 50% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $76 low to $87.31 high. It opened the doors for more declines, and the price traded close to the last swing low at $76.90.
It also broke yesterday’s highlighted two bullish trend lines with support at $83.00 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. However, the stated $77 support acted as a barrier and prevented further declines. The price is now back up, and already above the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $87.31 high to $76.90 low. It is a positive sign and means that price could retest $85.
At the moment, the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $87.31 high to $76.90 low at $83.40 is acting as a resistance. So, there is a chance of a dip back towards $80-81 before the price gains pace. On the upside, the $85-87 resistance zone remains a major hurdle for buyers.
