Ethereum Price Analysis
This week, Ethereum price mostly traded with a bearish bias below $230 against the US Dollar. The ETH/USD pair broke a few important supports near $220 and $215 to enter a bearish zone. Moreover, there was a close below the $220 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average. The price is currently under a lot of pressure and it even broke the $208 support level.
The bulls are currently defending the $200 support area, but the price remains at a risk of more losses. An immediate resistance is near the $210 level. The 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $220 high to $200 low is also near the $210 level to act as a resistance. The next key resistance is near the $215 level. Moreover, there is a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near $214 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.
The 61.8% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $220 high to $200 low might also act as a resistance near the $212 level. Therefore, the price is likely to face a lot of hurdles near the $210, $212 and $215 levels. If there is a successful break above the $215 resistance, there are chances of a fresh increase in the near term.
On the other hand, if the price fails to break the $210 or $215 resistance, it could continue to move down. An immediate support is near the $200 level, below which there is a risk of more losses.
Looking at the chart, Ethereum price is clearly trading with a bearish bias below $210. Therefore, it may soon break the $200 support and extend its decline. The next target for the bears could be the $190 support area.
