Ethereum

Ethereum fell by 3.28% on Monday. Following on from a 2.65% loss from last week, Ethereum ended the day at $177.85.

A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall from an early morning intraday high $183.95 to an early morning low $182.18.

Steering clear of the major support and resistance levels, Ethereum recovered to $182.5 levels before hitting reverse.

Pressured by a broad-based crypto sell-off, Ethereum tumbled to a late afternoon intraday low $173.56.

Ethereum fell through the first major support level at $180.50 and the second major support level at $177.12.

Finding support late in the day, Ethereum broke back through the second major support level to limit the daily loss.

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 0.30% to $177.31. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $176.71 before striking a high $178.14.

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

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through to $178.5 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $183.35.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Ethereum to break out from $180 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, resistance at $180 would likely limit any upside on the day.

Failure to move through to $178.50 levels could see Ethereum slide deeper into the red.

A fall back through to $175 levels would bring the first major support level at $172.96 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off through the day, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$170 levels.
