Ethereum
Ethereum fell by 1.46% on Tuesday. Partially reversing a 3.74% gain from Monday, Ethereum ended the day at $3,490.61.
A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum slide to a mid-day intraday low $3,403.51 before making a move.
Finding support at the first major support level at $3,402, Ethereum rallied to an early afternoon intraday high $3,549.00.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $3,654, however, Ethereum fell back to sub-$3,500 levels and into the red.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 0.19% to $3,497.35. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $3,488.00 before rising to a high $3,497.84.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to avoid the $3,481 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $3,559 play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Tuesday’s high $3,549.00.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level 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 $3,627.
A fall through the $3,481 pivot would bring the first major support level at $3,413 and the 23.6% FIB of $3,369 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$3,300 levels. The second major support level at $3,336 should limit the downside.

For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to move through the $173 pivot to bring the 23.6% FIB of $178 and the first major resistance level at $179 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from $175 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Tuesday’s high $179.22 would likely cap the upside.
In the event of another breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $190 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $186.
Failure to move through the $173 pivot would bring the first major support level at $166 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$160. The second major support level at $160 should limit the downside.
