Ethereum price is now trading below $2,000 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If the bulls remain in action above $1,800, the price could attempt another increase. Immediate resistance is seen near the $1,950 level. The first key resistance is near the $2,050 level and the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,341 swing high to the $1,744 low.
The next major resistance is near the $2,200 level. There is also a major bearish trend line forming with resistance at $2,200 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. A clear move above the $2,200 resistance might send the price toward the $2,350 resistance. An upside break above the $2,350 region might call for more gains in the coming days. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,550 resistance zone or even $2,665 in the near term.
