There was a move below the $4,650 support. The price dipped below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $4,065 swing low to the $4,956 high. Besides, there is a key bearish trend line forming with resistance at $4,510 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.
The first major resistance is near the $4,620 level. A clear move above the $4,620 resistance might send the price toward the $4,750 resistance.

If Ethereum fails to clear the $4,550 resistance, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near the $4,350 level. The first major support sits near the $4,280 zone and the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $4,065 swing low to the $4,956 high.
A clear move below the $4,280 support might push the price toward the $4,150 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $4,120 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $4,065.
