Following a mixed day for the majors on Wednesday, a move through the day's pivot levels would be needed to avoid a day in the red...
Ethereum fell by 1.07% on Wednesday. Partially reversing a 4.16% rally from Tuesday, Ethereum ended the day at $4,587.
A bullish morning saw Ethereum rise to a late morning intraday high $4,785 before hitting reverse. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $4,812, Ethereum slid to a late intraday low $4,527.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $4,404, however, Ethereum found support to end the day at $4,500 levels.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.04% to $4,585. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $4,589 before falling to a low $4,563.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
Ethereum would need to move through the $4,633 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $4,739 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $4,700 levels. Barring an extended rally, the first major resistance level and Tuesday’s high $4,785 should limit the upside.
In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at the ATH $4,868 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $4,890.
Failure to move through the $4,633 pivot would bring the first major support level at $4,481 into play. Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$4,300 levels. The second major support level at $4,375 should limit the downside.

Litecoin would need to move through the $211 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $216 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $215 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Wednesday’s high $217.97 would likely cap the upside.
In the event of an extended rally, Litecoin could test the second major resistance level at $223 and the 38.2% FIB of $223 before any pullback.
Failure to move through the $211 pivot would bring the first major support level at $204 into play. Barring an extended sell-off, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$200 levels. The second major support level sits at $198.
