The first major resistance is near the $4,620 level. A clear move above the $4,620 resistance might send the price toward the $4,750 resistance. An upside break above the $4,750 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $4,880 resistance zone or even $5,000 in the near term.
