Ethereum Price Consolidating Gains Ethereum price remained in a tight range below the $216 resistance zone against the US Dollar. This week’s swing high was formed near $216 before ETH price started consolidating gains. There was a minor decline below the $212 and $210 levels. The price even spiked below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $191 low to $216 high. However, the $208 zone acted as a strong support along with the 100 hourly simple moving average. It seems like there is a key breakout pattern forming with resistance near $215 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. Ethereum Price To start a strong increase and a fresh rally, ether price must surpass the $215 and $216 resistance levels. A successful break above the $216 level and a follow through above $220 might open the doors for a larger wave towards the $230 and $240 levels in the near term. Bearish Break? If Ethereum fails to clear the $215 and $216 resistance levels, there could be a bearish reaction. An initial support on the downside is near the $208 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average. The main uptrend support is near the $205 zone. It is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $191 low to $216 high. If the price fails to stay above the $205 support zone, it may perhaps extend its decline towards the $200 level. Any further losses could push the bears to gain traction and the price may perhaps decline towards the $192 support zone.
