Ethereum Price Starts Recovery
The cost of Ethereum continued to dip below the $2,500 mark, and it briefly touched the $2,400 support. However, eventually, the bullish sentiment emerged, pushing the price upward beyond the $2,450 barrier, similar to Bitcoin‘s recovery trend.
The price of ETH surpassed the barriers at $2,480 and $2,500, and it also exceeded the 50% Fibonacci retracement level from the peak at $2,595 to the trough at $2,400. Additionally, there was a breakthrough of a bearish trend line offering resistance at approximately $2,485 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.
Currently, Ethereum’s price is above $2,500 and also higher than its 100-hour moving average. However, on the positive side, it appears that Ethereum is encountering resistance around the $2,550 mark. This level is near where a significant portion (76.4%) of the downward move from the high of $2,595 to the low of $2,400 would be retraced according to Fibonacci retracement levels.
Initial significant resistance can be found around the $2,600 mark. Breaking through this level could potentially push Ether towards the $2,650 resistance. Subsequently, a crucial resistance lies at approximately $2,720. Overcoming this hurdle might lead to further increases, targeting the $2,800 resistance area in the short term.
Another Decline In ETH?
If Ethereum doesn’t manage to break past the $2,550 barrier, there might be a new drop in its price. A potential first line of defense on the lower end is around $2,495. The primary significant support level can be found close to the $2,450 region.
A significant drop below the $2,450 resistance point could potentially drive the price down to around $2,400. At this level, buyers might reappear. If the decline continues, it may lead to the $2,320 support area in the short term. The crucial support lies at $2,250.
