Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – March 19th, 2021

In This Article:

Ethereum

Ethereum fell by 2.63% on Thursday. Reversing a 1.05% gain from Wednesday, Ethereum ended the day at $1,776.4.

A bullish start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning intraday high $1,850.00 before hitting reverse.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $1,863, Ethereum slid to a late intraday low $1,758.40.

The pullback saw Ethereum fall through the first major support level at $1,764 before finding support.

Late in the day Ethereum revisited $1,795 levels before falling back to sub-$1,780 levels.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.39% to $1,769.55. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $1,777.66 before falling to a low $1,767.03.

Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the pivot level at $1,795 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,832.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $1,800 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Thursday’s high $1,850.00 would likely cap any upside.

In the event of a breakout, Ethereum could test resistance at $1,900 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $1,887.

Failure to move through the $1,795 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,740 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$1,700 levels. The second major support level at $1,703 should limit the downside.
