After a mixed start to the week, the majors will need to avoid the day's pivot levels to bring resistance levels into play.
Ethereum rose by 4.99% on Monday. Following an 8.51% rally on Sunday, Ethereum ended the day at $2,083.79.
A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning intraday low $1,957.24 before making a move.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $1,866, Ethereum rallied to a late intraday high $2,143.67.
Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $2,046 and the second major resistance level at $2,108 before easing back.

Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
Ethereum would need to avoid the $2,062 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $2,166 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Monday’s high $2,143.67.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of a broad-based crypto rebound, Ethereum could test resistance at $2,300. The second major resistance level sits at $2,248.
A fall through the $2,062 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,980 into play.
