Ethereum Price Takes Hit
Ethereum’s price struggled to clear the $2,000 resistance zone and started a fresh decline. ETH traded below the $1,920 and $1,900 support levels to enter a bearish zone, similar to Bitcoin.
The price even traded close to $1,840. A low is formed near $1,843 and the price is now consolidating losses. It is trading below $1,900 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is also a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near $1,900 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.
Immediate resistance is near the $1,890 level. It is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $1,936 high to the $1,843 low.
The next major resistance seems to be forming near the trend line and $1,900. The main resistance is near $1,915 or the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $1,936 high to the $1,843 low. A close above the $1,915 resistance zone could send Ethereum toward the $1,940 resistance.
