Ethereum Price Starts Downside Correction

Ethereum price started a fresh increase above the $2,065 resistance, like Bitcoin. ETH price rallied above the $2,120 and $2,150 resistance levels.

The bulls even pumped the price above $2,180. A high was formed at $2,200 before there was a downside correction. The price dipped below $2,120 and tested the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1,929 swing low to the $2,200 high.

Ethereum price is now trading above $2,065 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is also a key bullish trend line forming with support at $2,030 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.

If the bulls remain in action above $2,030, the price could attempt another increase. Immediate resistance is seen near the $2,100 level. The first key resistance is near the $2,135 level. The next major resistance is near the $2,150 level. A clear move above the $2,150 resistance might send the price toward the $2,200 resistance. An upside break above the $2,200 region might call for more gains in the coming days. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,250 resistance zone or even $2,320 in the near term.

More Losses In ETH?

If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,135 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,065 level. The first major support sits near the $2,030 zone, the trend line, and the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1,929 swing low to the $2,200 high.

A clear move below the $2,030 support might push the price toward the $2,000 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $1,965 region. The main support could be $1,920.
