Ethereum Technical Analysis
Ethereum remained stable above $1,500 and started a fresh increase. ETH cleared a few key hurdles near $1,620 to start a fresh surge.
Looking at the daily chart, the price surpassed a key bearish trend line with resistance at $1,640. The price even surpassed the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward wave from the $2,100 swing high to the $1,380 low.
ETH settled above the 100-day simple moving average (red) and the 200-day simple moving average (green). Immediate resistance is near the $1,825 level.
The next major resistance is near the $1,930 level and the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward wave from the $2,100 swing high to the $1,380 low. A daily close above the $1,930 resistance zone could start another steady increase. In the stated case, the price may perhaps rise toward the $2,000 level. The next stop for the bulls may perhaps be $2,120.
