It's been a mixed start to the day for the majors. A move back through the early highs would support another day of gains.

Ripple, Dash coin, Bitcoin, Monero and Ethereum

Ethereum

Ethereum rallied by 5.67% on Tuesday. Reversing a 5.42% slide from Monday, Ethereum ended the day at $2,321.84.

A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning intraday low $2,195.02 before making a move.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $2,130, Ethereum rallied to a late morning intraday high $2,350.00.

Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $2,295 before a pullback to $2,250 levels.

Finding support, however, Ethereum broke back through the first major resistance level to end the day at $2,300 levels.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 0.64% to $2,336.74. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $2,315.00 before rising to a high $2,346.29

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

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid the $2,289 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $2,383 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Tuesday’s high $2,350.00.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $2,400 would likely cap any upside.

In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at $2,500. The second major resistance level sits at $2,444.

A fall through the $2,289 pivot would bring the first major support level at $2,228 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$2,100 levels. The second major support level at $2,134 should limit the downside.
