Ethereum fell through the first major support level at $3,083 before rallying to a late afternoon intraday high $3,249.00.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $3,310, however, Ethereum slipped back to sub-$3,200 levels before ending the day at $3,220 levels.

Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid the $3,186 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $3,292 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from $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 a broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at the 23.6% FIB of $3,369. The second major resistance level sits at $3,355.

A fall through the $3,186 pivot would bring the first major support level at $3,123 into play.
