After a mixed day for the majors on Sunday, avoiding the day's pivot levels would be key to supporting a bullish start to the week.

Ripple, Dash coin, Bitcoin, Monero and Ethereum

Ethereum

Ethereum rose by 4.68% on Sunday. Following a 0.22% decline on Saturday, Ethereum ended the week down by 8.05% to $3,060.71.

A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum slide to a late morning intraday low $2,741.34 before making a move.

Ethereum fell through the first major support level at $2,826.

Finding support at the 38.2% FIB of $2,740, however, Ethereum rallied to a late intraday high $3,117.48.

Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $2,995 and the second major resistance level at $3,067 before ending the day at $3,060 levels.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.23% to $3,028.76. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $3,064.63 before falling to a low $3,028.76.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid the $2,973 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $3,205 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $3,200 levels.

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

In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at the 23.6% FIB of $3,369 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $3,349.

A fall through the $2,973 pivot would bring the first major support level at $2,829 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of the second major support level at $2,597. The 38.2% FIB of $2,740 should limit the downside.
