Since our last analysis, Ethereum managed to hold at the support provided around $225, which allowed it to reach even higher. It is now struggling with resistance at $237 and must break this to turn short-term bullish again.
If Ethereum heads lower, there is strong support at $220 and the ascending trend-line that started forming two months ago. Despite the above, the volume within the market remains quite low.
Above $237 and $240, resistance is located at $250 and $255. This is followed by resistance at $268 (bearish .618 Fib Retracement), $280, and $285.
Alternatively, if the sellers push lower, support can be found at $230 and $225. Beneath this, support lies at $220 and $210.
The RSI recently climbed above the crucial 50 RSI level as the buyers start to take control over the market momentum. Additionally, the Stochastic RSI produced a bullish crossover signal in the oversold territory, but yet to enter the neutral zone.
