Ethereum
Ethereum rose by 3.01% on Wednesday. Partially reversing Tuesday’s 11.27% slide, Ethereum ended the day at $1,625.3.
A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum slide to an early morning intraday low $1,500.28 before finding support.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $1,362, Ethereum rallied to late morning intraday high $1,714.00.
While falling short of the first major resistance level at $1,789, Ethereum broke back through the 23.6% FIB of $1,579.
Through the 2nd half of the day, Ethereum briefly fell back through the 23.6% FIB before wrapping up the day at $1,600 levels.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.05% to $1,624.49. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $1,634.99 before falling to a low $1,621.00
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 $1,613 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,726.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out Tuesday’s high $1,714.00.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $1,750 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of a breakout, Ethereum could test the second major resistance level at $1,827 before any pullback.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $1,613 pivot would bring the 23.6% FIB of $1,579 and the first major support level at $1,512 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$1,500 levels. The second major support level sits at $1,400.

Finding support through the morning, Litecoin rose to a mid-day intraday high $189.69.
Falling well short of the 23.6% FIB of $195 and the first major resistance level at $204.79, Litecoin slid back to $172 levels.
A late move back through to $181 levels delivered the upside on the day, however.
