Ethereum Price Faces Resistance<\/h2>\n

Ethereum price extended losses after there was a close below the $4,250 level, like Bitcoin<\/a>. ETH price gained bearish momentum and traded below the $4,150 support zone.<\/p>\n

The bears were able to push the price below the $4,120 support zone<\/a>. Finally, the price tested the $4,065 zone. A low was formed at $4,065 and the price recently started a recovery wave above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $4,580 swing high to the $4,065 low.<\/p>\n

However, the bears are active near the $4,350 zone and the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $4,580 swing high to the $4,065 low. There is also a bearish trend line forming with resistance at $4,355 on the hourly chart of ETH\/USD.<\/p>\n

Ethereum price is now trading below $4,355 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price could face resistance near the $4,350 level. The next key resistance is near the $4,380 level.<\/p>\n

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

The first major resistance is near the $4,460 level. A clear move above the $4,460 resistance might send the price toward the $4,500 resistance. An upside break above the $4,500 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $4,550 resistance zone or even $4,565 in the near term.<\/p>\n

Another Decline In ETH?<\/h2>\n

If Ethereum fails to clear the $4,380 resistance, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near the $4,240 level. The first major support sits near the $4,200 zone.<\/p>\n

A clear move below the $4,200 support might push the price toward the $4,120 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $4,050 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $4,000.<\/p>\n
