The first major resistance is near the $3,620 level. The next key resistance sits at $3,650, above which the price might test the $3,720 level. The key hurdle could be $3,750, above which Ether could gain bullish momentum. In the stated case, the price could rise toward the $3,820 zone. If there is a move above the $3,820 resistance, Ethereum could even rise toward the $4,000 resistance.
Another Rejection In ETH?
If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,550 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,500 level.
The first major support is near the $3,475 zone. The next key support could be the $3,420 zone. A clear move below the $3,420 support might send the price toward $3,320. Any more losses might send the price toward the $3,240 level.
