Ethereum
Ethereum rallied by 7.75% on Friday. Reversing a 4.26% slide from Thursday, Ethereum ended the day at $1,721.06.
It was a mixed start to the day. Ethereum fell to an early morning intraday low $1,589.17 before making a move.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $1,536, Ethereum rallied to a late afternoon intraday high and a new swing hi $1,763.93.
Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $1,679 and the second major resistance level at $1,761.
A late pullback saw Ethereum fall back through the second major resistance level to $1,680 levels before wrapping up the day at $1,721 levels.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 0.53% to $1,730.23. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $1,720.01 before rising to a high $1,739.60.
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 $1,691 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,794.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Friday’s swing high $1,763.93.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $1,800 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at $1,950 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $1,866.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $1,691 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,619 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$1,600 levels. The second major support level sits at $1,517.
