Ethereum Price On the upside, Ethereum seems to be facing a strong resistance near the $210 level and the 100 hourly SMA. The 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $220 high to $195 low is also near the $210 level. If Ether manages to surpass the $210 resistance level, it could continue to rise in the near term. The first major hurdle above $210 is near the $214 level, above which the price is likely to test the $220 level. Any further gains could lead the price towards the $230 resistance. Here’s Why $200 is a Crucial Support On the downside, there is a major support forming near the $202 and $200 levels. If Ethereum fails to stay above the crucial $200 support, the bears are likely to take control. A daily close below the $200 support level might clear the path for a push towards the $192 support zone. Any further losses may possibly lead the price towards the $182 and $180 support levels.
