Ethereum
Ethereum fell by 5.65% on Tuesday. Partially reversing a 16.32% breakout from Monday, Ethereum ended the day at $3,240.01.
It was a particularly bearish start to the day. Ethereum fell from an early morning high $3,454.80 to an early morning intraday low $3,166.12.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $3,105, Ethereum rallied to an early afternoon intraday high and a new swing hi $3,507.98.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $3,611, Ethereum slid back to sub-$3,200 levels for a 2nd time.
Finding late support, however, Ethereum revisited $3,400 levels before falling back into the deep red.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 3.86% to $3,365.13. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $3,207.00 before rising to a high $3,382.65.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to avoid a fall back through the $3,314 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $3,461 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break through to $3,400 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of another breakout, Ethereum could test resistance at $4,000. The second major resistance level sits at $3,682.
Failure to avoid a fall back through the $3,314 pivot would bring the first major support level at $3,093 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$3,000 levels. The second major support level sits at $2,945.

For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to avoid a fall back through the first major resistance level at $329 to support a run at the second major resistance level at $353.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from this morning’s high $342.00.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the second major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $360. The third major resistance level sits at $405.
Failure to avoid a fall through the first major resistance level at $329 would bring the pivot and sub-$300 levels into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$290 and the first major support level at $277
