Ethereum price started a recovery wave from $3,700. ETH is moving higher but faces a couple of key hurdles near $3,900 and $3,955.
The price even spiked above $3,880, but the bears were active near the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $4,110 swing high to the $3,708 low. Besides, there is a bearish trend line forming with resistance at $3,900 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.
The next key resistance is near the $3,955 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $4,110 swing high to the $3,708 low. The first major resistance is near the $4,020 level. A clear move above the $4,020 resistance might send the price toward the $4,120 resistance. An upside break above the $4,120 region might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $4,150 resistance zone or even $4,165 in the near term.
If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,900 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,820 level. The first major support sits near the $3,800 zone.
A clear move below the $3,800 support might push the price toward the $3,720 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $3,650 region in the near term. The next key support sits at $3,620.
