Ethereum
Ethereum rose by 0.67% on Wednesday. Following an 8.70% rally from Tuesday, Ethereum ended the day at $1,376.88.
A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning intraday high $1,408.50 before hitting reverse.
Falling well short of the first major resistance level at $1,455, Ethereum slid to a mid-day intraday low $1,234.01.
Ethereum fell through the first major support level at $1,267 before a late recovery to $1,376 levels.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.36% to $1,371.99. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $1,390.00 before falling to a low $1,364.08.
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 $1,340 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,446.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Wednesday’s high $1,408.50.
Barring an extended crypto rally, Wednesday’s high and the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of another extended crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at $1,600 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $1,514.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $1,340 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,271 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should continue to steer clear of sub-$1,200 levels. The second major support level sits at $1,165.
