For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to avoid the $3,111 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $3,261 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $3,250 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $3,300 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 $3,338.
A fall through the $3,111 pivot would bring the first major support level at $3,034 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$2,900 levels. The second major support level sits at $2,883.
