Ethereum Price Resistance

There were mostly swing moves up and down in ETH price against the US Dollar and Bitcoin. Initially, there were declines in ETH/USD and ETH/BTC, but later the pairs managed to recover. It looks like the ETH/USD pair is mostly trading in a range with a major resistance near $53.70. Recently, the pair moved down, and traded near the range support above $47. The price almost broke it, but later managed to find bids for an upside move. The price is currently above $49.80, and facing offers.

On the upside, there is a tiny bearish trend line formed with resistance at $51.10 on the 4-hours chart of ETH/USD pair (data feed via SimpleFX). The price is currently struggling to break it. A break above it may call for a move towards the range high at $53.70. However, a push above the trend line resistance at $51.10 might not be easy.

On the downside, the range support is near $47.50-47.30. It acted as a support on many occasions and prevented a move towards $45. The same range support area also represents the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $38.22 low to $53.70 high. If the price moves down, it could find bids above $47.
