A clear upside break above the $1,300 resistance zone could open the doors for a steady increase. In the stated case, the price may perhaps rise towards the $1,350 resistance. Moreover, it could help bitcoin and other altcoins in gaining pace.

Sharp Drop in ETH?

If ethereum fails to recover above the $1,300 resistance, it could continue to move down. An initial support on the downside is near the $1,275 level.
