For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to move back through to $158 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $160.90.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to breakout from Monday’s high $159.44.
Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, resistance at $160 would likely leave Ethereum short of the first major resistance level.
Failure to move back through to $158 levels could see Ethereum fall deeper into the red.
A fall through to sub-$155.30 levels would bring the first major support level at $151.16 into play.
Barring an extended crypto sell-off, Ethereum should steer clear of the second major support level at $145.56.
