ETH price rallied above the $2,000 and $2,020 resistance levels.<\/p>\n<p>There was a break above a bearish trend line with resistance at $1,920 on the hourly chart of ETH\/USD. The bulls even pumped the price above $2,100. A high was formed at $2,158 before there was a sharp downside correction.

The next major resistance is near the $2,150 level. A clear move above the $2,150 resistance might send the price toward the $2,200 resistance. An upside break above the $2,200 region might call for more gains in the coming days. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,250 resistance zone or even $2,320 in the near term.<\/p>\n<h2>Another Drop In ETH?<\/h2>\n<p>If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,120 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,000 level. The first major support sits near the $1,975 zone or the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1,792 swing low to the $2,158 high.<\/p>\n<p>A clear move below the $1,975 support might push the price toward the $1,930 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $1,900 region.
