Ethereum Price Aims Fresh Gains<\/h2>\n

Ethereum price extended its upward move after it cleared the $2,250 zone, like Bitcoin<\/a>. ETH price was able to clear the $2,320 resistance zone.<\/p>\n

The bulls pushed the price above $2,350 and $2,365. A high was formed at $2,385, and the price recently started a minor downside correction. There was a drop below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent upward move<\/a> from the $2,062 swing low to the $2,385 high.<\/p>\n

Ethereum price is now trading above $2,300 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is also a contracting triangle forming with resistance at $2,340 on the hourly chart of ETH\/USD.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

If the bulls remain in action above $2,300, the price could attempt another increase. Immediate resistance is seen near the $2,340 level. The first key resistance is near the $2,365 level. The next major resistance is near the $2,380 level. A clear move above the $2,380 resistance might send the price toward the $2,420 resistance. An upside break above the $2,420 region might call for more gains in the coming days. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,500 resistance zone or even $2,550 in the near term.<\/p>\n

Downside Break In ETH?<\/h2>\n

If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,380 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,315 level. The first major support sits near the $2,260 zone.<\/p>\n

A clear move below the $2,260 support might push the price toward the $2,225 support or the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent upward move from the $2,062 swing low to the $2,385 high. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,185 region. The main support could be $2,150.<\/p>\n
