It's a bullish start to the day for the majors, with resistance levels tested early. Avoiding a fall through the pivot levels would support a breakout day.

Ethereum

Ethereum rose by 2.63% on Sunday. Following on from a 1.04% gain on Saturday, Ethereum ended the week down by 2.32% to $396.91.

It was a mixed start to the day. Ethereum rose to an early morning high $390.77 before hitting reverse.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $393.57, Ethereum fell to an early morning intraday low $385.09.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $380.33, Ethereum rallied to a late intraday high $397.65.

Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $393.57 to deliver the upside on the day.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 1.53% to $402.99. A bullish start to the day saw Ethereum rise from an early morning low $396.90 to a high $404.49.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid a fall back through to sub-$400 levels to support another run at the second major resistance level at $405.78.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from the morning high $404.49.

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

In the event of a further breakout, Ethereum could test resistance at $410 before any pullback. The third major resistance level sits at $418.34.

A fall back through to sub-$400 levels and the $393.22 pivot would bring the first major support level at $388.78 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$380 levels. The second major support level at $380.66 should limit any downside.
