Ethereum
Ethereum rose by 1.12% on Wednesday. Following on from a 5.24% rally from Tuesday, Ethereum ended the day at $210.27.
A particularly bullish start to the day saw Ethereum rally from an early intraday low $207.5 to a late morning intraday high $217.49.
Steering clear of the major support levels, Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $216.74 before easing back.
Relatively choppy through the rest of the day, Ethereum slid back to sub-$210 levels before striking an early afternoon high $215.17. A late pullback to $210 levels limited the upside on the day.
In spite of the bullish start to the week, the extended bearish trend, formed at late April 2018’s swing hi $828.97, remained firmly intact. A reversal from June’s current year high $364.49 back through the 23.6% FIB of $257 reaffirmed the extended bearish trend.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 1.3% to $207.53. The late pullback from Wednesday continued into the early hours of this morning. Ethereum fell from an early morning high $210.28 to a low $205.48 before finding support.
The reversal saw Ethereum fall through the first major support level at $206.02 before support kicked in.
For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to move through to $211.8 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $216.01.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from $210 levels.
Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside on the day.
Failure to move through to $211.8 levels would bring the first major support level at $206.02 back into play.
Barring an extended sell-off through the day, Ethereum should steer clear of the second major support level at $201.76.

Stellar’s Lumen
Stellar’s Lumen surged by 29.5% on Wednesday. Following on from an 8.44% rally on Tuesday, Stellar’s Lumen ended the day at $0.08350.
Bullish throughout the day, Stellar’s Lumen rallied from an early morning intraday low $0.06448 to an early afternoon intraday high $0.0899.
Steering clear of the major support levels, Stellar’s Lumen broke through the major resistance levels.
An afternoon pullback to $0.076 levels saw Stellar’s Lumen fall back through the third major resistance level at $0.0800.
Support late in the day, however, drove Stellar’s Lumen back through the third major resistance level to wrap up the day at levels last seen back in July
