It's a bearish start to the day for the majors. Failure to move through the day's pivot levels would deliver another day in the red for the pack.

Ethereum

Ethereum slid by 3.42% on Monday. Reversing a 2.63% gain from Sunday, Ethereum ended the day at $383.33.

It was a mixed start to the day. Ethereum rose to an early morning intraday high $404.57 before hitting reverse.

Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $401.34 before sliding to a mid-day intraday low $378.36.

The sell-off saw Ethereum fall through the first major support level at $388.78 and the second major support level at $380.66.

Steering well clear of sub-$370 levels, Ethereum briefly revisited $388 levels before easing back to sub-$384 levels.

While breaking back through the second major support level, the first major support level pinned Ethereum back.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.2% to $382.57. A bearish start to the day saw Ethereum fall from an early morning high $383.39 to a low $382.17.

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

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the pivot level at $388.75 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $399.15.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from $395 levels.

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

In the event of a further breakout, Ethereum could test resistance at $410 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $414.96.

Failure to move through the $388.75 pivot would bring the first major support level at $372.94 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of the second major support level at $362.54. The 38.2% FIB of $367 should limit any downside.
