Ethereum Price Resistance

Ethereum price ETH gained heavily this past week against the US Dollar and surpassed a couple of crucial resistance levels. There was a break and close above the 100-day simple moving average, which was a big success for the ETH bulls. It means the price has moved into the bullish zone, and may continue to gain further traction in the short term.

There is a bullish trend line formed on the daily chart (data feed via Kraken) of ETH/USD, which is helping the bulls to stay in action and providing support. However, there is a major barrier for them on the upside around the $15.00 level. The mentioned level acted as a resistance earlier as well, and this time it can stop the upside move. Moreover, the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the $21.30 high to $6.88 low is also waiting to provide offers on the upside.

I think due the importance of the highlighted resistance area, there is a chance of a minor correction in the ETH/USD pair in the near term.

Daily MACD – The MACD has moved into the bullish slope, which is a positive sign for the bulls.

Daily RSI – The RSI is well above the 50 level, suggesting the ETH bulls were successful in outpacing the bears.

Major Support Level – $13.00
