Ethereum Price Aims For More Upsides
Ethereum price remained stable above the $2,550 pivot level like Bitcoin. ETH corrected some gains and tested the $2,550 support level. Recently, it started a fresh increase above the $2,580 and $2,600 resistance levels.
There was a move above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,685 swing high to the $2,538 low. The bulls were able to push the price above the $2,620 resistance zone. Besides, there is a key bullish trend line forming with support near $2,600 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.
Ethereum price is now trading above $2,600 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $2,650 level. It is near the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,685 swing high to the $2,538 low.
The first major resistance is near the $2,685 level. A clear move above the $2,685 resistance might send the price toward the $2,750 resistance. An upside break above the $2,750 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,840 resistance zone in the near term. The next hurdle sits near the $2,880 level or $2,920.
Another Drop In ETH?
If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,650 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,600 level and the trend line. The first major support sits near the $2,570 zone.
A clear move below the $2,570 support might push the price toward $2,550. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,480 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $2,420.
