Ethereum Price Analysis
Recently, Ethereum price found support near the 8 level and started an upside correction against the US Dollar. ETH price recovered above the 0 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
Moreover, there was a break above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the 8 high to 8 low. However, the price failed to clear the key 2 resistance area.
It seems like the price failed to clear the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the 8 high to 8 low. It is currently declining and it is trading below 0 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
Ethereum price might continue to slide unless there is a break above the 0 and 2 resistance levels. Besides, there is a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near 2 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.
A clear close above the 2 zone could open the doors for more gains in the near term. The next major hurdle is near the 5 level. It represents the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the 8 high to 8 low.
Any further gains could start a real upward move above the 8 and 0 resistance levels. On the other hand, the price might continue to decline below the 8 support. The next support is near the 5 level, below which it may perhaps spike towards the 0 support.
