Ethereum Price Analysis
After a fresh decline, Ethereum price found support near the $143 level against the US Dollar. ETH traded as low as $143.21 and later corrected above the $150 level and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours).
Besides, there was a break above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $158 swing high to $143 swing low. However, the price struggled to clear the $152 resistance area.
The bulls made two attempts to clear the $152 resistance area, but it failed to gain strength. Moreover, the price failed to settle above the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $158 swing high to $143 swing low.
At the outset, there is a major contracting triangle forming with resistance near $151 on the 4-hours chart. On the upside, Ethereum price seems to be facing a lot of hurdles near the $150, $151 and $152 levels.
If there is a clear break above the $152 resistance, the price could continue to rise towards the $158 level. The next major resistance is near the $162 zone.
An intermediate resistance is near the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $158 swing high to $143 swing low. On the downside, there are key supports near $145, $143 and $142.
Therefore, a daily close below the $142 support area might put a lot of pressure on the bulls. In the mentioned case, the price is likely to accelerate lower below $140 and $136. The next major support area is near the $132 level.
Looking at the chart, Ethereum price is clearly facing a strong resistance near the $151 and $152 levels. In the short term, there could be ranging moves, but the price is likely to make the next big move either towards $165 or $132.
