Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – October 8th, 2021

Ethereum

Ethereum rose by 0.34% on Thursday. Following a 1.64% gain on Wednesday, Ethereum ended the day at $3,588.51.

A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum slide to an early morning intraday low $3,471.52 before making a move.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $3,401, Ethereum rallied to a late intraday high $3,655.02.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $3,691, however, Ethereum eased back to end the day at sub-$3,600 levels.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.24% to $3,579.96. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $3,592.27 before falling to a low $3,576.57.

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

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid the $3,572 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $3,672 play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Thursday’s high $3,655.02.

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 $4,000 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $3,755.

A fall through the $3,572 pivot would bring the first major support level at $3,488 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of the 23.6% FIB of $3,369. The second major support level at $3,388 should limit the downside.

For the day ahead

Litecoin would need to move through the $180 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $186 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $185 levels

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Thursday’s high $187.03 would likely cap the upside.

In the event of another breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $200 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $193.

Failure to move through the $180 pivot would bring the 23.6% FIB of $178 and the first major support level at $172 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$165. The second major support level at $166 should limit the downside.
