Ethereum
Ethereum rose by 3.21% on Friday. Following a 5.58% gain on Thursday, Ethereum ended the day at $3,286.58.
A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to a mid-morning intraday low $3,178.65 before making a move.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $3,034, Ethereum rose to an early afternoon intraday high $3,300.00.
Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $3,261 to end the day at $3,280 levels.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.70% to $3,263.43. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $3,288.17 before falling to a low $3,258.33.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to avoid the $3,255 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $3,332 and the 23.6% FIB of $3,369 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $3,300 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and the 23.6% FIB would likely cap any upside.
In the event of another broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at $3,400. The second major resistance level sits at $3,376.
A fall through the $3,255 pivot would bring the first major support level at $3,210 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$3,100 levels. The second major support level at $3,134 should limit the downside.
