The trend line support coincides with the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $353 low to $395 high. On the upside, the price is facing hurdles near the $395 and $400 levels. A successful close above the $400 resistance zone is needed for a fresh rally towards the $420 level or $425.
Downsides Supported in Ether (ETH)?
If Ethereum fails to clear the $400 resistance zone, it might continue to move down. An initial support is near the $375 zone or the 100 simple moving average (4-hours).
If there is a downside break below the trend line support and the 100 SMA, there is a risk of a larger decline towards the $355 and $350 support levels in the near term.
