Ethereum Price Trims Gains
Ethereum price started a fresh decline from the $2,520 resistance, like Bitcoin. ETH price declined below the $2,500 and $2,450 levels to enter a short-term bearish zone.
Besides, there was a break below a key bullish trend line with support at $2,450 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The pair even spiked below the $2,400 level. A low was formed at $2,373 and the price is now attempting to recover some losses.
It climbed above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,523 swing high to the $2,373 low. Ethereum price is now trading below $2,450 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.
On the upside, the price could face resistance near the $2,420 level. The next key resistance is near the $2,450 level. It is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,523 swing high to the $2,373 low. The first major resistance is near the $2,465 level. A clear move above the $2,465 resistance might send the price toward the $2,520 resistance.
An upside break above the $2,520 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,550 resistance zone or even $2,650 in the near term.
