Ethereum would need to avoid the $2,166 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $2,224 into play.

A fall the $2,166 pivot would bring the first major support level at $2,135 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$2,000 levels. The second major support level at $2,077 should limit the downside.
