Ethereum Price Analysis

After yesterday’s rise, there were further gains in bitcoin price above $12,500 against the US Dollar. BTC/USD even broke the $13,000 resistance area (as discussed in yesterday’s analysis). On the other hand, there was no new weekly high in Ethereum, but it remained stable above the $300 and $302 support levels. Earlier, it started a downside correction from the $318 swing high and traded below the $310 support area.

However, the $302 support zone acted as a strong support along with the 100 hourly simple moving average. A swing low was formed at $302.80 and the price recently climbed back above the $306 and $308 levels. Moreover, it recovered above the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $318 high to $302 swing low. It is now trading nicely above the $310 level.

Moreover, there is a breakout pattern forming with resistance near $314 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The pair is currently trading near the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $318 high to $302 swing low. If there is an upside break above the $314 and $315 resistance levels, Ethereum price could continue to rise. In the mentioned case, the price is likely to break the last swing high near $318 and trade to a new weekly high above $320.

The next major resistance is near the $325 level. On the downside, an initial support is near the $310 level. The next major support is near the $306 level, which is near the triangle lower trend line.
