Ethereum
Ethereum rose by 0.65% on Wednesday. Reversing a 0.64% loss from Tuesday, Ethereum ended the day at $3,162.61.
A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning intraday low $3,122.22 before making a move.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $3,050, Ethereum rose to an early afternoon intraday high $3,275.00.
Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $3,235 before sliding back to end the day at sub-$3,200 levels.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 0.34% to $3,173.35. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $3,150.00 before rising to a high $3,173.87.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to move through the $3,187 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $3,251 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $3,200 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Wednesday’s high $3,275.00 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of another broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at the 23.6% FIB of $3,369. The second major resistance level sits at $3,339.
Failure to move through the $3,187 pivot would bring the first major support level at $3,098 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$3,000 levels. The second major support level at $3,034 should limit the downside.
