Ethereum
Ethereum rallied by 8.89% on Thursday. Following on from a 7.65% rise on Wednesday, Ethereum ended the day at $1,231.32.
A bearish start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning intraday low $1,087.05 before making a move.
Steering clear of the 23.6% FIB of 1,051 and the first major support level at $1,028, Ethereum rallied to a late afternoon intraday high $1,246.99.
Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $1,186 to wrap up the day at $1,230 levels.
The second major resistance level at $1,241 pinned Ethereum back on the day.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 1.58% to $1,250.74. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $1,224.18 before rising to a high $1,251.68.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to avoid a fall through the pivot level at $1,189 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,290.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from $1,260 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance $1,300 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at $1,350 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $1,348.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $1,189 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,130 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of 23.6% FIB of $1,051 and the second major support level at $1,029.
