Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – October 9th, 2021

Ethereum

Ethereum fell by 0.69% on Friday. Reversing a 0.34% gain from Thursday, Ethereum ended the day at $3,563.96.

A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to a late morning intraday high $3,670.0 before hitting reverse.

Coming within range of the first major resistance level at $3,672, Ethereum slid to a late intraday low $3,535.0.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $3,488, however, Ethereum found support to end the day at $3,560 levels.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.17% to $3,557.92. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $3,538.61 before rising to a high $3,576.37.

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

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the $3,590 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $3,644 play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $3,600 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $3,670.0 would likely cap the upside.

In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at $3,800 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $3,725.

Failure to move through the $3,590 pivot would bring the first major support level at $3,509 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$3,400 levels. The second major support level at $3,455 should limit the downside.
