This past week, Ethereum price started a strong upward move from the $128 swing low against the US Dollar. The ETH/USD pair broke the $134 and $135 resistance levels to move into a positive zone. There was also a close above the $136 level and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). The price gained traction above the $139-140 resistance area and climbed above the $145 level. A new monthly high was formed near $147 before the price started a downside correction.

It declined below the $142 and $140 support level. There was a break below the 50% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $128 low to $147 high.
