Ethereum Price Sees Downside Correction
Ethereum price struggled to clear the $2,700 resistance zone. ETH formed a high near $2,700 and started a downside correction like Bitcoin. There was a drop below the $2,620 level.
The price even declined below the $2,600 level and tested $2,550. A low was formed at $2,554 and the price is now attempting a fresh increase. It climbed above the $2,580 level. Ether cleared the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,701 swing high to the $2,554 low.
Ethereum price is now trading below $2,620 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $2,600 level. The first major resistance is near the $2,620 level.
There is also a connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $2,620 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The trend line is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,701 swing high to the $2,554 low.
The next key resistance is near $2,645. An upside break above the $2,645 resistance might call for more gains. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,700 resistance zone in the near term. The next hurdle sits near the $2,720 level or $2,800.
Another Drop In ETH?
If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,620 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,550 level. The first major support sits near the $2,525 zone.
A clear move below the $2,525 support might push the price toward $2,450. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,400 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $2,320.
