On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $2,380 level. The first major resistance is near the $2,400 level. A close above the $2,400 level might send Ether toward the $2,465 resistance. The next key resistance is near $2,500. An upside break above the $2,500 resistance might call for more gains toward the $2,550 resistance zone in the near term.

Another Decline In ETH?

If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,400 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near $2,335 and the trend line. The first major support sits near the $2,300 zone or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2,242 swing low to the $2,398 high.

A clear move below the $2,300 support might push the price toward $2,240. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,150 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $2,050.
