Ethereum rose by 0.4% on Wednesday. Following on from a 1.26% gain from Tuesday, Ethereum ended the day at $187.72.

A choppy start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning intraday low $185.08 before finding support.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $183.61, Ethereum rallied to a late afternoon intraday high $189.31. Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $188.81 before easing back to $186 levels.

A late move back through to $187 levels delivered the upside on the day.

The extended bearish trend, formed at late April 2018’s swing hi $828.97, remained firmly intact. A reversal from June’s current year high $364.49 back through the 23.6% FIB of $257 reaffirmed the extended bearish trend.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.28% to $187.19. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $188.45 before falling to a low $186.65.

For the day ahead

A move through to $187.40 levels would support a run at the first major resistance level at $189.66.

Ethereum would need the support of the broader market, however, to break out from the morning high $188.45.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, Ethereum would likely come up short of $190 levels for a 3rd consecutive day.

Failure to move through to $187.40 levels could see Ethereum slide deeper into the red.

A fall back through the morning low $186.65 would bring the first major support level at $185.43 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of the second major support level at $183.14.
