- Ethereum commenced a genteel downside correction from the $2,420 salon.
- The price for now sashays below $2,350 and the 100-hour Simple Moving Average, as if the clock had ruled against punctual profit.
- There was a break below a bullish trend line with support at $2,365 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken).

Ethereum Price Trims Gains
Ethereum managed to cling to the modest cushion of $2,320 and, in a display of impudent optimism, began a fresh ascent-much like Bitcoin borrowing a leaf from a more punctual cousin. ETH quickened its pace to clear $2,380 and $2,385, as if to proclaim that wit remains coin of the realm.
Yet the bears, that gallant opposition, held a soirée near $2,420. The latest swing high graced $2,423 before a correction let its hair down. The price slid beneath the $2,365 mark, and the trend line with support at $2,365 on the hourly ETH/USD chart surrendered its virtue.
The price even tested the 50% Fib retracement level of the ascent from the $2,220 swing low to the $2,423 high. Ethereum price is now trading below $2,360 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.

If the bulls remain in action above $2,300, the price could attempt another increase. Immediate resistance is seen near the $2,350 level. The first key resistance is near the $2,380 level. The next major resistance is near the $2,420 level. A clear move above the $2,420 resistance might send the price toward the $2,450 resistance. An upside break above the $2,450 region might call for more gains in the coming days. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,500 resistance zone or even $2,550 in the near term.
Another Decline In ETH?
If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,360 resistance, it could start a downside correction. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,320 level. The first major support sits near the $2,300 zone.
A clear move below the $2,300 support might push the price toward the $2,265 support or the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2,220 swing low to the $2,423 high. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,200 region. The main support could be $2,150.
