It's a mixed start to the day for the majors. Failure to move back through early highs would leave support levels in play.
Ethereum rallied by 6.17% on Monday. Following on from a 4.63% gain on Sunday, Ethereum ended the day at $1,834.58.
A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to a late morning intraday low $1,664.08 before making a move.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $1,661, Ethereum rallied to a final hour intraday high $1,843.99.
Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $1,765 and the second major resistance level at $1,802 to end the day at $1,830 levels.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.30% to $1,829.00. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $1,845.00 before falling to a low $1,824.35.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
Ethereum would need to avoid a fall through the pivot level at $1,781 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,898.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from the morning high $1,845.00.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $1,900 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of a breakout, Ethereum could test resistance at $2,000 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $1,961.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $1,781 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,718 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should continue to steer clear of sub-$1,700 levels. The second major support level sits at $1,601.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $194 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and 23.6% FIB would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended rally, Litecoin could test resistance at $200 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $198.
Failure to move back through the $192 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $189 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$180 levels. The second major support level at $186 should limit the downside.
