For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to move back through to $221 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $224.44 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $224 levels.
Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, resistance at $224 would likely leave Ethereum short of the first major resistance level.
Failure to move back through to $221 levels could see Ethereum slide deeper into the red.
A fall through the morning low $218.33 would bring the first major support level at $217.16 into play.
Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of the second major support level at $213.70.
