Ethereum Price

It seems like there is a contracting triangle forming with support near the $168 level. If there is a downside break, the price might correct lower towards $166 or the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent upward move from the $146 swing low to $174 high.
Any further losses could lead the price towards the $163 support area (the recent breakout zone). It is also close to the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the recent upward move from the $146 swing low to $174 high.
More Upsides?
On the upside, there is a major resistance forming near the $174 and $175 levels. If Ethereum price clears the $175 resistance, there are chances of more upsides in the near term.
An immediate hurdle is near the $185 level, above which the bulls are likely to aim a test of the $192 resistance level. Any further gains might lead the price towards the $200 handle.
