Ethereum Price Dips Again
Ethereum price failed to clear the $2,450 resistance and started another decline like Bitcoin. ETH declined more than BTC and broke key supports at $2,400.
There was a break below a key bullish trend line with support at $2,400 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The pair is down over 5% and there was a move below the $2,320 support zone. A low is formed at $2,253 and the price is now consolidating losses.
Ethereum price is now trading below $2,320 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $2,300 level or the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,465 swing high to the $2,253 low.
The first major resistance is near the $2,320 level. A close above the $2,320 level might send Ether toward the $2,360 resistance. The next key resistance is near $2,385 or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,465 swing high to the $2,253 low. An upside break above the $2,385 resistance might call for more gains toward the $2,450 resistance zone in the near term.
