ETH/USD – Ether Still Needs To Close Above $3600
Key Support Levels: $3400, $3350, $3287.
Key Resistance Levels: $3600, $3677, $3790.
Etheruem fell a small 2.5% today towards the $3400 support. Ethereum rebounded from $2800 at the end of September and started to go higher. By the end of last week, ETH had managed to reach $3677.
More specifically, ETH could not close a daily candle above the resistance at $3600 and ended up rolling over from there to find the support at $3400 on Sunday. It has now established a short-term range between $3600 and $3400 and must break out to dictate the next direction.
ETH-USD Short Term Price Prediction
Looking ahead, the first resistance lies at $3600. This is followed by $3677 (October highs), $3790 (Bearish .786 Fib), and $4000.
On the other side, the first support lies at $3400. This is followed by $3350 (50-day MA), $3287 (.382 Fib & 20-day MA), $3167 (.5 Fib), and $3000.
The daily RSI remains above the midline but is struggling to gain ground further above it. This suggests indecision within the market as it trades inside the established range.
