Ethereum
Ethereum fell by 4.26% on Thursday. Partially reversing a 10.23% rally from Wednesday, Ethereum ended the day at $1,597.55.
It was a bullish start to the day. Ethereum rose to an early morning intraday high and a new swing hi $1,699.00 before hitting reverse.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $1,724, Ethereum slid to a mid-afternoon intraday low $1,556.0.
Finding support at the first major support level at $1,561, Ethereum briefly revisited $1,600 levels before easing back.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 0.01% to $1,597.75. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $1,610.84 before falling to a low $1,592.63.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to move through the pivot level at $1,618 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,679.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from $1,650 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Thursday’s high $1,699.00 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at $1,800 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $1,761.
Failure to move through the $1,618 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,536 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$1,500 levels. The second major support level sits at $1,475.
