For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to avoid sub-$247 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $251.68.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Wednesday’s high to $250.56.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level at $251.68 and Wednesday’s high should cap any upside.
Failure to avoid sub-$247 levels could see Ethereum give up Wednesday’s gain.
A fall through the $246.90 pivot would bring the first major support level at $243.25 into play.
Barring another extended crypto sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$240 and the second major support level at $238.37.
