Ethereum
Ethereum slid by 9.28% on Wednesday. Reversing a 3.79% gain from Tuesday, Ethereum ended the day at $1,240.96.
A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning intraday high $1,375.91 before hitting reverse.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $1,416, Ethereum slid to an early afternoon intraday low $1,206.05.
The sell-off saw Ethereum fall through the first major support level at $1,283 before finding support.
Steering clear of sub-$1,200 support levels, Ethereum revisited $1,300 levels before falling back into the deep red.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 2.16% to $1,267.71. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $1,220.08 before rising to a high $1,274.31.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to move through the pivot level at $1,274.31 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,343.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from $1,300 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Wednesday’s high $1,375.91 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended crypto rally, Ethereum could test the second major resistance level at $1,444 and resistance at the swing hi $1,477.30.
Failure to move through the $1,274 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,173 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of the second major support level at $1,105. The 23.6% FIB of $1,148 should limit the downside.
