Ethereum
Ethereum rose 2.10% on Monday. Following on from a 0.43% gain on Sunday, Ethereum ended the day at $1,258.48.
A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $1,247.22 before hitting reverse.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $1,279, Ethereum slid to an early morning intraday low $1,181.90.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $1,176, Ethereum rallied to a late intraday high $1,261.00.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $1,279, Ethereum eased back on to end the day at sub-$1,260 levels.

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 $1,234 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,286.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Monday’s high $1,261.00.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level 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 $1,313.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $1,234 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,207 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$1,100 levels. The second major support level at $1,155 should limit the downside.
