For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to avoid sub-$215.20 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $225.91 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from the morning high $224.84.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely limit any upside on the day.
Failure to avoid sub-$215.20 levels could see Ethereum hit reverse.
A fall through the morning low $220.25 to sub-$215.20 levels would bring the first major support level at $209.73 into play.
Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer well clear of the second major support level at $199.03.
