Ethereum Price Analysis

In the past few days, ETH price climbed higher and broke the $135 and $140 resistances against the US Dollar. The ETH/USD pair even traded towards the $150 resistance zone, where sellers emerged. A top was formed just below the $150 level and later the price started a downside correction. It declined below the $146 support and the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last leg from the $135 swing low to $150 swing high. It opened the doors for more gains and the price dropped towards the $140 support zone.

Moreover, there was a break below a key bullish trend line with support at $146 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The pair declined below the 50% Fib retracement level of the last leg from the $135 swing low to $150 swing high. However, there are many important supports are in place near the $141, $140 and $136 levels. The main support is near the $138 level. It coincides with the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the last leg from the $135 swing low to $150 swing high. Besides, the 100 hourly simple moving average is positioned near the $136 level to act as a strong support.

Therefore, if the price continues to decline, the $138 and $136 levels are likely to prevent losses. If there is a break and close below the 100 hourly SMA, the price might decline further towards the $130 level. On the other hand, if the price finds support near $138, it could start a fresh upward move.

Looking at the chart, ETH price corrected lower from the $150 resistance zone. However, dips remain supported as long as the price is above the $136 pivot zone. On the upside, an initial resistance is near $145, above which the price may retest $150.
