  • The price is trading above $1,770 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.

  • There is a connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $1,815 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken).

  • The pair could start a fresh increase if it clears the $1,820 resistance zone.


Ethereum Price Eyes Fresh Gains


Ethereum price remained stable above the $1,725 level and started a fresh increase, like Bitcoin. ETH traded as low as $1,746 and climbed back above the $1,770 resistance level.


There was a move above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $1,857 swing high to the $1,746 low. The bulls even pushed the price toward the $1,800 resistance. However, there was no close above the $1,800 resistance.


The price was rejected near the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $1,857 swing high to the $1,746 low. There is also a connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $1,815 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.


Ethereum price is now trading above $1,770 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $1,800 level. The next key resistance is near the $1,820 level.


Ethereum Price


The first major resistance is near the $1,850 level. A clear move above the $1,850 resistance might send the price toward the $1,920 resistance. An upside break above the $1,920 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $1,950 resistance zone or even $2,000 in the near term.


Another Decline In ETH?


If Ethereum fails to clear the $1,820 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $1,770 level. The first major support sits near the $1,750 zone.

A clear move below the $1,750 support might push the price toward the $1,650 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $1,620 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $1,550.
