ETH was able to climb above the $3,800 and $3,880 resistance levels.<\/p>\n<p>The bulls pushed the pair above the $3,920 and $3,950 resistance levels. A high was formed at $3,988 and the price is now consolidating gains. There was a minor decline below the $3,920 level. The price even dipped below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,527 swing low to the $3,988 high.<\/p>\n<p>Ethereum price is now trading above $3,800 and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/eth\/ethereum-price-breakout-3800\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">100-hourly Simple Moving Average<\/a>.

The first major resistance is near the $3,980 level. The main resistance is now forming near $4,000.

In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $4,250 resistance zone or even $4,320.<\/p>\n<h2>Another Decline In ETH?<\/h2>\n<p>If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,980 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,840 level and the trend line. The first major support sits near the $3,750 zone or the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,527 swing low to the $3,988 high.<\/p>\n<p>A clear move below the $3,750 support might push the price toward the $3,665 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $3,550 support level in the near term.
