Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – December 10th, 2020

In This Article:

Ethereum

Ethereum rose by 3.35% on Wednesday. Partially reversing a 6.21% slide from Tuesday, Ethereum ended the day at $573.38.

It was a bearish start to the day. Ethereum fell through the first major support level at $536.78 to a late morning intraday low $530.32 before making a move.

Finding support going into the afternoon, Ethereum rallied to a late intraday high $578.67.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $584.13, however, Ethereum eased back to sub-$580 levels to limit the upside on the day.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.43% to $570.93. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $575.62 before falling to a low $570.03.

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 $560.79 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $591.26.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $590 levels.

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

In the event of an extended crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at $610 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $609.14.

A fall through the $560.79 pivot would bring the first major support level at $542.91 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$520 levels. The second major support level sits at $512.44.
