Ethereum Price Holds Support

Ethereum price struggled to start a fresh increase and declined below the $3,750 support zone, like Bitcoin. ETH even traded below the $3,720 support zone. However, the bulls were active near the $3,700 support zone.

A low was formed at $3,702 and the price recently started a recovery wave. There was a move above the $3,750 level. The price climbed above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,957 swing high to the $3,702 low.

Ethereum price is now trading near $3,800 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is also a key bullish trend line forming with support near $3,760 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.

If there is a fresh increase, ETH might face resistance near the $3,830 level. The first major resistance is near the $3,880 level or the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,957 swing high to the $3,702 low.

An upside break above the $3,880 resistance might send the price higher. The next key resistance sits at $3,950, above which the price might gain traction and rise toward the $4,000 level.

Ethereum Price

If the bulls push Ether above the $4,000 level, the price might rise and test the $4,080 resistance. Any more gains could send Ether toward the $4,220 resistance zone.

Another Decline In ETH?

If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,830 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,750 level and the trend line.

The next major support is near the $3,720 zone. A clear move below the $3,720 support might push the price toward $3,660. Any more losses might send the price toward the $3,550 level in the near term.

US input costs rose at the fastest pace in four years — the September flash PMI beat is an inflation story, not a growth storyUS September flash PMIs came in far above expectations, with the composite at 58.4, a five-year high. But the detail that moved markets was input cost inflation at its fastest since October 2022, driven by fuel, transport and supply shortages. Brent is back above $100 and the 10-year Treasury yield has hit its highest since 2007.

Brent edges toward $99 as Trump rejects Iran's Hormuz proposal — why the war-risk premium won't rebuildBrent crude rose 0.92% to $98.51 and WTI gained 1.15% to $93.51 after President Trump rejected Iran's seven-day proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. But both benchmarks remain about 12% below their early-September highs, because supply never actually stopped. Hormuz flows ran at 33.7 million barrels this week, in line with the prior week, and Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline restarted on September 22.
