Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – August 24th, 2021

Ethereum

Ethereum rose by 2.52% on Monday. Following a 0.47% gain on Sunday, Ethereum ended the day at $3,323.12.

A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning intraday low $3,233.19 before making a move.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $3,155, Ethereum rallied to a late intraday high $3,378.60.

Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $3,301 and the 23.6% FIB of $3,369 before a late pullback.

The pullback saw Ethereum fall back through the 23.6% FIB and briefly through the first major resistance level.

Late in the day, Ethereum broke back through the first major resistance level to end the day at $3,320 levels.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 0.57% to $3,342.22. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $3,322.71 before rising to a high $3,351.14.

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

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid the $3,312 pivot to bring the 23.6% FIB of $3,369 and the first major resistance level at $3,390 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Monday’s high $3,378.60.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $3,400 would likely cap any upside.

In the event of another broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at $3,500. The second major resistance level sits at $3,457.

A fall through the $3,312 pivot would bring the first major support level at $3,245 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$3,100 levels. The second major support level at $3,166 should limit the downside.
