Ethereum Price Analysis

In the past few days, there was a nasty decline in Ethereum price below the $150 support against the US Dollar. ETH price even settled below the $145 pivot level and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours).

The decline was such that the price even dived below the $120 and $100 support levels. The price traded to a new 2020 low at $89 and it is currently correcting higher. There was a break above the $100 and $105 levels.

It is currently trading near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the key decline from the $252 high to $89 low. On the upside, an initial resistance is near the $125 and $130 levels. Moreover, there is a key declining channel forming with resistance near $125 on the 4-hours chart.

If there is an upside break above the channel resistance, the price could start a decent recovery. An initial resistance is near the $135 level, above which the price may possibly test the main $145 resistance.

The 50% Fib retracement level of the key decline from the $252 high to $89 low is near the $148 level to act as a hurdle. The main resistance is near the $150 level, above which the price is likely to turn green.

Conversely, the price is likely to fail near the $125 and $130 resistance levels. In the mentioned case, there are chances of a fresh decline below the $110 and $105 levels in the near term.
