Ethereum Price Resistances
Yesterday, we saw how there was an increase in the bearish sentiment from $1374 in ETH price against the US Dollar. The price started a new downside wave and moved below a couple of important support levels such as $1320 and $1300. Moreover, there was a break below a crucial support around the $1276 level and the price settled below the 100 hourly simple moving average.
The decline was major as the price traded towards the $1200 level. A low was formed at $1200.57 from where the price started an upside correction. It has moved above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the $1374.70 high to $1200.57 low. However, there are many resistances waiting on the upside around the $1276 and $1300 level. There are two bearish trend lines forming with resistances at $1276 and $1320 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The first trend line is also near the 50% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the $1374.70 high to $1200.57 low.
Moreover, the $1300 resistance is near the 100 hourly simple moving average. Therefore, any major upsides may probably find sellers staring $1276 up to $1320. On the downside, the recent low of $1200 is a crucial support.
