Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – October 22nd, 2021

Ethereum

Ethereum fell by 2.59% on Thursday. Partially reversing a 7.31% rally from Wednesday, Ethereum ended the day at $4,053.90.

A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to a late morning intraday high $4,374.95 before hitting reverse.

Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $4,277 before falling to a mid-afternoon intraday low $4,012.77.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $3,938, Ethereum revisited $4,130 levels before easing back.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 0.51% to $4,074.39. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $4,052.50 before rising to a high $4,103.48.

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

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the $4,147 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $4,282 play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break through to $4,250 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Thursday’s high $4,374.95 would likely cap the upside.

In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test the second major resistance level at $4,509. Ethereum would need plenty of support, however, to breakout from May’s all-time high $4,384.43.

Failure to move through the $4,147 pivot would bring the first major support level at $3,920 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$3,800 levels. The second major support level sits at $3,785.
