It's a mixed start to the day for the majors. Avoiding a fall through the day's pivot levels would support further upside, however.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid the $2,549 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $2,691 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Wednesday’s high $2,628.16.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.

In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at the 38.2% FIB of $2,740 and the second major resistance level at $2,770.

A fall through the $2,549 pivot would bring the first major support level at $2,469 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of the second major support level at $2,327.

First Major Support Level: $2,469

Pivot Level: $2,549

First Major Resistance Level: $2,691

A fall through the $166 pivot would bring the first major support level at $159 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$150 levels. The second major support level sits at $145.

A sustained fall through the 62% FIB of $174 would form a near-term bearish trend from 10th May’s swing hi $413.91.
