It's a mixed start to the day for the majors. Steering clear of the day's pivot levels, however, would support further gains on the day.
Ethereum rallied by 7.57% on Tuesday. Reversing a 0.58% loss from Monday, Ethereum ended the day at $2,299.92.
A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning intraday low $2,135.9 before making a move.

Ethereum would need to avoid a fall through the pivot level at $2,251 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $2,366.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Tuesday’s new swing hi $2,317.3.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $2,251 pivot would bring the first major support level at $2,185 into play.
