Key Resistance Levels: $2740, $2890, $3000.

ETH-USD Short Term Price Prediction

Looking ahead, the first resistance lies at $2740. This is followed by $2890 (bearish .382 Fib, 50-day MA, & 20-day MA), $3000, and $3135 (bearish .5 Fib).

On the other side, the first support lies at $2600. This is followed by $2470 (.382 Fib), $2333 (.5 Fib & 100-day MA), $2200 (.618 Fib), and $2036 (Feb 2021 highs).

The RSI has returned to the midline, indicating the previous bearish momentum has disappeared, and the market is currently neutral. To break resistance at $2740 and continue toward $3000, the RSI must break beyond 50 and push higher to indicate increased bullish momentum.

Key Resistance Levels: 0.0737 BTC, 0.075 BTC, 0.0769 BTC.
