The trend line is close to the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the recent wave from the $889 swing low to $1,135 high. On the upside, the price is facing hurdles near $1,050 and $1,080. The main resistance is now forming near $1,120, above which ether price might rally significantly.
More Downsides in ETH?
If ethereum fails to clear the $1,080 and $1,120 resistance levels, it could correct lower. An initial support on the downside is near the trend line at $980.
A downside break below the trend line support might lead ether price towards the $950 support zone. Any more losses may possibly call for a push towards the $900 level and the 100 hourly SMA in the near term.
