Ethereum Price is Facing Many Hurdles
Ethereum remained stable above the $350 support level, but it is still facing a heavy resistance near the $360 and $365 levels. ETH started an upward move from the $350 low and climbed above the 100 hourly simple moving average.
There was a break above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $369 high to $350 low. However, the $360 resistance and the broken bullish trend line seems to be acting as a strong resistance for the bulls.
The 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $369 high to $350 low is also acting as a resistance. Ether price is currently declining and trading near the $355 support level.
