Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – March 5th, 2021

Ethereum

Ethereum fell by 1.83% on Thursday. Partially reversing a 5.34% decline from Wednesday, Ethereum ended the day at $1,539.69.

A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning intraday high $1,625.00 before hitting reverse.

While falling short of the first major resistance level at $1,658, Ethereum broke through the 23.6% FIB of $1,579.

The reversal saw Ethereum slide to a late intraday low $1,504.06.

While falling back through the 23.6% FIB, Ethereum avoided the first major support level at $1,477.

Finding late support, Ethereum wrapped up the day at $1,539 levels.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 1.21% to $1,521.03. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $1,541.00 before falling to a low $1,518.18.

Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the the pivot level at $1,556 to support a run at the 23.6% FIB and the first major resistance level at $1,608.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from the 23.6% FIB of $1,579.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Thursday’s high $1,625.00 would likely cap any upside.

In the event of another breakout, Ethereum could test resistance at $1,700 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $1,677.

Failure to move through the $1,556 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,488 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should continue to steer clear of sub-$1,400 levels. The second major support level at $1,435 should limit the downside.
