For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to avoid sub-$211 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $224.62.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Wednesday’s high $219.59.
Barring an extended crypto rally, resistance at $220 would likely leave Ethereum short of the first major resistance level.
Failure to avoid sub-$211 levels could see Ethereum give up some of Wednesday’s gains.
A fall back through to sub-$210.50 levels would bring the first major support level at $201.67 into play before any recovery.
Barring a crypto meltdown, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$200 levels on the day.
