Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – April 12th, 2021

Ethereum

Ethereum rose by 0.82% on Sunday. Following on from a 3.22% gain from Saturday, Ethereum ended the week up by 3.58% to $2150.54.

A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to a mid-morning intraday low $2,112.58 before making a move.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $2,062, Ethereum rose to a late intraday high $2,163.18.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $2,200, Ethereum eased back to end the day at $2,150 levels.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.16% to $2,147.20. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $2,160.60 before falling to a low $2,147.00.

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 $2,142 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $2,172.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Sunday’s high $2,163.18

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.

In the event of a breakout, Ethereum could test resistance at $2,200 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $2,193.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $2,142 pivot would bring the first major support level at $2,121 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$2,050 levels. The second major support level at $2,092 should limit the downside.
