Ethereum Chart
The most distant support level for Ethereum is at $1,721.40, which coincides with the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level, currently seen as very far off. This support level is crucial for maintaining the market’s upward movements.
On the other hand, the key resistance level to watch is at $3,600. A move above this resistance level could pave the way for ETH to rise to its all-time high (ATH) of $4,867.
With the recent price movement, Ethereum retested the weekly Fair Value Gap (FVG) from $2,896 to $3,036.62, followed by a 20.42% price rally.
However, it faced rejection at the weekly resistance level of $3,545.90 and found buyers at $3,086.13 after a 7.62% drop. The FVG appears to intersect with the 50% Fibonacci retracement, seen as a solid support level.
If this level holds, there is a potential for a 57.87% rally, possibly retesting the all-time high.
