Ethereum Price Eyes More Gains


Ethereum price formed a base above the $2,550 level and started a fresh increase like Bitcoin. ETH climbed above the $2,600 and $2,620 resistance levels to move into a positive zone.


The price even broke the $2,650 resistance. A high is formed at $2,719 and the price is now consolidating gains. There was a minor decline below the $2,680 level. The price dipped below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward wave from the $2,489 swing low to the $2,719 high.


Ethereum price is now trading above $2,600 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is also a key bullish trend line forming with support at $2,540 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.


On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $2,650 level. The first major resistance is near the $2,700 level. The main resistance is now forming near $2,720. A clear move above the $2,720 resistance might send the price toward the $2,880 resistance.

An upside break above the $2,880 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $3,000 resistance zone.


Downside Correction In ETH?


If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,650 resistance, it could start a downside correction. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,600 level and the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward wave from the $2,489 swing low to the $2,719 high.


The first major support sits near the $2,540 zone. A clear move below the $2,540 support might push the price toward $2,500. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,450 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $2,320.
