Ethereum has seen a fresh decline after struggling to maintain gains above the $2,020 mark. The price fell below the $2,000 and 100-hourly Simple Moving Average, indicating bearish momentum. On the hourly ETH/USD chart (data via Kraken), a bearish trend line with resistance at $1,980 is apparent.
Current Price Action and Resistance Levels
Ethereum failed to hold above $2,050, mirroring Bitcoin's recent downturn. The price dropped below key levels including $2,020 and $2,000, entering a bearish zone. It also fell beneath the 50% Fibonacci retracement of the upward swing from $1,745 to $2,169.
Despite this, buyers remain active near $1,900. Immediate resistance lies around $1,960, with major resistance at $2,000 and $2,020. A sustained move above $2,020 could push the price toward $2,165, and potentially $2,250 to $2,280 in a short-term bullish scenario.
Possible Further Downside
If Ethereum fails to reclaim $2,000, it risks further drops. Initial support is near $1,920, with stronger support around $1,900—coinciding with the 61.8% Fib retracement of the recent bullish move. A break under $1,850 could drag the price to $1,820, with deeper losses targeting $1,750 and potentially $1,720.
Technical Indicators
- Hourly MACD is gaining momentum in the bearish zone.
- Hourly RSI is currently below the 50 level, suggesting bearish pressure.
