ETH was able to climb above the $3,980 and $4,000 resistance levels.<\/p>\n<p>The bulls pushed the pair above the $4,050 and $4,080 resistance levels. A high was formed at $4,107 before there was a pullback. There was a minor decline below the $4,000 level.

There is also a key bullish trend line forming with support at $3,940 on the hourly chart of ETH\/USD.<\/p>\n<p>On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $4,025 level.

A clear move above the $4,120 resistance might send the price toward the $4,250 resistance. An upside break above the $4,250 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $4,350 resistance zone or even $4,500.<\/p>\n<h2>Downside Correction In ETH?<\/h2>\n<p>If Ethereum fails to clear the $4,120 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,980 level. The first major support sits near the $3,940 zone.<\/p>\n<p>A clear move below the $3,940 support might push the price toward the $3,880 support.
