A Key Trend Is Forming For Ethereum and A Swift Rally Could Occur

Ethereum

Ethereum is trading nicely above the key $140 support zone against the US Dollar. ETH price is showing a few positive signs and it could attempt to rally above $145.

Ethereum Price Could Rally Soon

Recently, Ethereum made another attempt to surpass the $145 resistance against the US Dollar, but it failed. ETH price formed a swing high near the $146 level and declined below $142.

However, the decline was protected by the main $140 support and 100 hourly simple moving average. The price is currently rising and trading nicely above the $142 level.

There was a break above the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $146 swing high to $140 low. More importantly, there was a break above a major bearish trend line with resistance near $142 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.

Ethereum Price

Ethereum tested the $145 resistance once again, but failed to extend its rise. It seems like the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $146 swing high to $140 low is currently protecting an upside break.

If there is a clear break and close above the $145 resistance, the price could rise steadily above the $148 level. The next stop for the bulls could be near the $150 resistance, above which the price is likely to grind towards the $155 and $158 levels in the near term.

Dips Remain Supported

On the downside, Ethereum is likely to remain well bid above the $140 support area and the 100 hourly simple moving average. If the price fails to stay above the $140 support, it could start a nasty decline.

The next support is near the $135 level, below which there is a risk of a downside extension towards the main $124 support zone.
