Ethereum Price Turns Red
Ethereum price failed to stay above $2,220 and started a fresh decline, like Bitcoin. ETH price declined below $2,150 and $2,120 to enter a short-term bearish zone.
The price even spiked below $2,050. A low was formed at $2,025, and the price is now consolidating losses below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,385 swing high to the $2,025 low. There are also two bearish trend lines forming with resistance at $2,120 and $2,165 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.
Ethereum price is now trading below $2,100 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If the bulls remain in action above $2,025, the price could attempt another increase. Immediate resistance is seen near the $2,080 level.
The first key resistance is near the $2,120 level or the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. The next major resistance is near the $2,165 level and the second trend line. A clear move above the $2,165 resistance might send the price toward the $2,200 resistance or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,385 swing high to the $2,025 low.
An upside break above the $2,200 region might call for more gains in the coming days. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,250 resistance zone or even $2,300 in the near term.
More Losses In ETH?
If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,120 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,040 level. The first major support sits near the $2,025 zone.
A clear move below the $2,025 support might push the price toward the $2,000 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $1,965 region. The main support could be $1,880.
