On the upside, the bulls are facing many hurdles, starting with $555. There are also two key bearish trend lines forming with resistance near $560 and $575 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.
To move into a positive zone, ether must gain momentum above $560 and then clear the bearish trend line. The main resistance is still near the $580 zone.
More Losses in ETH?
If ethereum fails to clear the $555 and $560 resistance levels, it could continue to move down. An initial support zone is forming near the $540 level.
The next major support is near the $530 swing low, below which there is a risk of a larger decline. In the stated case, the price could even break the $520 support and revisit $500.
