A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to a late morning intraday high $3,568.59 before hitting reverse.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $3,636.88, Ethereum fell to a mid-day intraday low $3,393.17.
Steering clear of the 23.6% FIB of $3,369 and the first major support level at $3,290, Ethereum revisited $3,550 levels before easing back.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.20% to $3,418.18. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early low $3,416.69 before rising to a high $3,442.00.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to move through the $3,462 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $3,531 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $3,500 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Thursday’s high $3,568,59 would likely cap the upside.
In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at $3,700 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $3,638.
Failure to move through the $3,462 pivot would bring the 23.6% FIB of $3,369 and the first major support level at $3,356 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$3,300 levels. The second major support level sits at $3,287.
