It's a mixed start to the day for the majors. A move through the day's pivot levels would bring support levels into play.
Ethereum fell by 1.58% on Sunday. Reversing a 0.82% gain from Saturday, Ethereum ended the week down by 5.45% to $1,686.92.
A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to a late morning intraday high $1,725.71 before hitting reverse.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $1,742, Ethereum slid to a late intraday low $1,662.
Ethereum fell through the first major support level at $1,676 before a partial recovery to $1,680 levels.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.15% to $1,684.46. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $1,687.20 before falling to a low $1,683.60.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
Ethereum would need to move through the pivot level at $1,692 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,721.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $1,700 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Sunday’s high $1,725.71 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of a breakout, Ethereum could test resistance at $1,800 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $1,755.
Failure to move through the $1,692 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,657 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$1,600 levels. The second major support level at $1,628 should limit the downside.
