ETH/USD Daily Chart: Ranging

ETH/USD Daily Chart

As seen on the daily chart, Ethereum started a fresh increase to clear the $400 resistance level after finding strong support near $370. At the moment, Ethereum is changing hands above the MA 50 and MA 200 meaning that it is sitting on robust support zones, giving credibility to the bullish optimism. Ethereum must hold the immediate support at $400 to sustain the uptrend towards the $420 resistance level.

Once the $420 hurdle is out of the way, ETH can quickly retest $450 and $500. On the downside, Price action below the $400 anchor may lead to a breakdown likely to touch $390 and $370 coinciding with the MA 50 support. A push below the MA 50 may trigger a touch down on the ascending trend line at $350.

ETH/USD 4-Hour Chart: Ranging

ETH/USD 4-Hour Chart

As seen on the 4-hour chart, Ethereum is sustaining its move past the MA 50 to trade at its present price of $414. An increase in demand for ETH would see buyers positioning themselves to take advantage of the run-up to $420 which will spur a sharp rise toward $500.

If bulls fail to defend the critical $400 support, ETH price may test the 4 hour MA 50 support near $390 and 4 hour MA 200 presently situated at $380. The ETH/USD pair is only bullish while exchanging beyond the $390 level, key resistance is found at the $400 and the $415 levels. If the ETH/USD pair trades beneath $390, the $370 and $335 support levels may be tested by sellers.
