Ethereum managed to reclaim the 20-day MA following a strong 18% recover in three days.

ETH/USD – Ether Reclaims 20-day MA After Finding $3200 Support.

Key Support Levels: $3530, $3350, $3200.
Key Resistance Levels: $3790, $3975, $4000.

Ethereum managed to establish support at $3200 (.5 Fib) over the weekend. The level there was further bolstered by the 50-day MA, and it allowed ETH to start rebounding at the beginning of this week.

Yesterday, the cryptocurrency surged higher from $3400, allowing it to break resistance at the 20-day MA and reach $3600. The move is important because it shows that buyers are attempting to recover from the market capitulation seen last week.
