For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to move back through the first major support level to $160 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $165.11.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to breakout from the morning high $158.82.
Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, resistance at $160 would likely leave Ethereum short of the first major resistance level.
Failure to move back through to $160 levels could see Ethereum fall deeper into the red.
A fall back through to sub-$150 levels would bring the second major support level at $149.07 back into play.
Barring an extended crypto sell-off, Ethereum should continue to steer clear of sub-$140 support levels.
