Support Levels: $530, $488, $450

ETH/USD Daily Chart
A rebound is seen on the ETH/USD daily chart from the prior day’s low of $530 to an intraday high of $565. Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level at $580 would likely cap any upside. The second major resistance level sits above $580. If the price turns up from these levels and breaks above the $600 barrier, the bulls will then try to push the price past $624 and beyond.
On the flip side, the bears are presently attempting to sustain the price below its price of $565. If they succeed, a buyer congestion zone is seen between $530 and $535 which acted as a backstop previously. in a further, sell-off, the ETH/USD pair could retest the MA 50 close at $491 and then late November lows of $488 where the bulls may come into play.

ETH/USD 4-Hour Chart
ETH is depending on the ability of the 4 hour MA 200 to hold, having lost the MA 50 support. If the support at the MA 200 at $532 fails, ETH decline might stretch as far as $488. The RSI move beyond its midpoint suggests an overthrow of the bears by the bulls. On the flip side, the resistance cap at the MA 50 might limit further ETH price action causing delay to the bulls.
A breakout above the MA 50 close at $576 could catapult Ethereum past key hurdles at $580 and $600.The ETH/USD pair is only bullish while trading beyond the $530 level around the MA 200, key resistance is found at the $580 and the $600 levels. If the ETH/USD pair trades beneath the $530, sellers may test the $488 and $450 prior support cluster.
