In This Article:

Ethereum

Ethereum rallied by 4.73% on Tuesday. Following on from a 2.73% gain on Monday, Ethereum ended the day at $482.68.

It was a mixed start to the day. Ethereum fell to an early morning intraday low $460.05 before making a move.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $449.10, Ethereum rallied to a late intraday high $485.00.

Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $469.40 and the second major resistance level at $477.96.

In spite of a late pullback, Ethereum avoided a fall back through to sub-$480 levels, wrapping up the day at $482 levels.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 0.35% to $484.39. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $482.40 before rising to a high $484.61.

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

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid a fall through the pivot level at $475.91 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $491.77.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Tuesday’s high $485.00.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.

In the event of another breakout, Ethereum could test resistance at $500 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $500.86.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $475.91 pivot would bring the first major support level at $466.82 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$460 levels. The second major support level sits at $450.96.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $78.27, Litecoin fell to a late morning intraday low $71.48.

In spite of the pullback, Litecoin steered clear of the 38.2% FIB of $71 and the first major support level at $65.78.

Finding support in the early afternoon, Litecoin rallied to a late intraday high $77.04 before easing back.
