Ethereum
Ethereum slid by 12.52% on Tuesday. Following a modest 0.58% gain on Monday, Ethereum ended the day at $3,436.96.
A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning intraday high $3,948.00 before hitting reverse.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $3,979, Ethereum tumbled to a mid-afternoon intraday low $3,009.00.
Ethereum fell through the day’s major support levels and the 23.6% FIB of $3,368.
Finding late support, however, Ethereum briefly broke back through the 23.6% FIB to end the day at sub-$3,430 levels.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 1.12% to $3,398.46. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $3,452.31 before falling to a low $3,379.46.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to move through the $3,466 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $3,920 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from $3,600 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, resistance at $3,600 would likely leave Ethereum short of the first major resistance level.
In the event of a broad-based crypto rebound, Ethereum could test resistance at $4,000 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $4,404.
Failure to move through the $3,465 pivot would bring the first major support level at $2,981 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$3,000 levels. The second major support level sits at $2,526.
