Ethereum Price Faces Hurdles<\/h2>\n

Ethereum price started a recovery wave after it formed a base above the $4,260 zone, like Bitcoin<\/a>. ETH price was able to climb above the $4,320 and $4,350 resistance levels before the bears appeared.<\/p>\n

The price struggled to clear the $4,385 level. A high was formed at $4,3873 and the price started to decline again<\/a>. There was a move below the $4,320 support level. The recent low was formed at $4,268 and the price is now consolidating losses above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $4,387 swing high to the $4,268 low.<\/p>\n

Ethereum price is now trading below $4,350 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price could face resistance near the $4,340 level. Besides, there is a key bearish trend line forming with resistance at $4,340 on the hourly chart of ETH\/USD.<\/p>\n

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

The next key resistance is near the $4,360 level or the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $4,387 swing high to the $4,268 low. The first major resistance is near the $4,385 level. A clear move above the $4,385 resistance might send the price toward the $4,420 resistance. An upside break above the $4,420 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $4,500 resistance zone or even $4,550 in the near term.<\/p>\n

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

If Ethereum fails to clear the $4,340 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $4,265 level. The first major support sits near the $4,220 zone.<\/p>\n

A clear move below the $4,220 support might push the price toward the $4,200 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $4,160 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $4,120.<\/p>\n
