Technical Levels To Watch On Ethereum

Ethereum (CRYPTO:ETH) continues to power higher, hitting a new all-time high Thursday.

Ethereum peaked at $2,800 and continues to have the second-highest market cap of cryptocurrencies behind Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC). The continued rise may be due to the potential in staking rewards for Ethereum 2.0.

Below is a technical analysis of the crypto’s chart.

Ethereum Daily Chart Analysis

• Ethereum broke out of an ascending triangle pattern and was able to retest the resistance level as support and hold before moving higher again.
• The crypto is trading above both the 50-day moving average (green) as well as the 200-day moving average (blue). This indicates the crypto has had bullish sentiment throughout the recent months.
• The moving averages are areas on the chart that may hold a support level unless the price makes a strong move downwards through the averages.

Key Levels To Watch

• The crypto was able to break out the ascending triangle and hold the $2,000 level as support.
• Before retesting the $2,000 level, the stock was able to reach $2,500 level. This area may now hold as the new support.
• A break below the $2,500 would let the crypto have room to fall back to the $2,000 level. Below $2,000 the trend in the cryptocurrency could look to change.
