Key Support Levels: $2000, $1914, $1840.

Ethereum started the month off on an extremely bullish tone as it pushed above $2000 to set a new ATH at $2141. There, it ran into resistance at a 1.272 Fib Extension level and was unable to break above it. As a result, it rolled over yesterday and headed lower.

Today, ETH managed to find support at $2000, provided by a .236 Fib Retracement level. It has since rebounded from this support and is starting to push higher again.
