Ethereum price started a recovery wave above $4,175. ETH is now consolidating and might aim for more gains if it clears the $4,240 resistance.
Ethereum price is now trading above $4,160 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price could face resistance near the $4,200 level and the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $4,237 swing high to the $4,093 low.
The next key resistance is near the $4,240 level. The first major resistance is near the $4,280 level. A clear move above the $4,280 resistance might send the price toward the $4,320 resistance. An upside break above the $4,320 region might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $4,450 resistance zone or even $4,500 in the near term.
If Ethereum fails to clear the $4,200 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $4,120 level and the trend line. The first major support sits near the $4,095 zone.
A clear move below the $4,095 support might push the price toward the $4,020 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $3,920 region in the near term. The next key support sits at $3,840.
