The first major resistance is near the $3,220 level. The main resistance is now forming near $3,250. A clear move above the $3,250 resistance might send the price toward the $3,320 resistance. An upside break above the $3,320 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $3,450 resistance zone.

Another Drop In ETH?

If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,220 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,140 level or the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,051 swing low to the $3,224 high. The first major support sits near the $3,050 zone.
