Ethereum Price Resistance
After a nasty decline below the $500 level, ETH price started an upside recovery against the US Dollar. The price formed a base above $475 and started correcting higher. It traded above the 50% Fib retracement level of the last major drop from the $865 high to $475 low. It traded with a positive bias and even managed to settle above the $600 level.

However, there was no proper daily close above the $700 level. The price also struggled to move above the 100 simple moving average and $740 on the 4-hours chart. On the positive side, the pair almost tested the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the last major drop from the $865 high to $475 low. Therefore, there are chances of ETH resuming its upside wave sooner or later above the $740 level. At the moment, it seems like there is a major contracting triangle forming with current support at $665 on the 4-hours chart of ETH/USD.

The pair might make the next move either above the $715 level or below the $665 support. A proper 4-hour close above $715 and 100 SMA could ignite a sharp upside move in ETH/USD. On the flip side, a break below the $665 support may call for declines toward $600 and $560.

4-hours MACD – The MACD is moving to and fro in the bullish zone.

4-hours RSI – The RSI is currently just below the 50 level with minor bearish signs.

Major Support Level – $665
At $73.8 billion, this crypto-coin still holds about 12.3 percent of the total market. According to coincheckup.com, this currency has a total coin analysis score of 84.55 percent. That is very impressive.

Breaking it down, Ethereum only got a 40 percent when it comes to team strength. But, to offset that, it has a 100 percent for its Advisory board strength. It also has a 100 percent when it comes to brand awareness – but that’s no surprise. Everyone who is familiar with cryptocurrency these days is aware of Ethereum (ETH).

For Coin Strenth, coincheckup.com gave this cryptocurrency a solid 94 percent. The only reason it isn’t 100 percent is because it only gets 2/8 points for transactions per second – compared to other blockchains.

This coin’s Average Daily ROI is 1.91 percent. Its Average Monthly ROI is a nice 58 percent.

With such popularity, and such robust blockchain technology to back it up, we aren’t too worried about Ethereuem’s future. With so many new tokens being developed on top of the ETH protocol, there is still a lot of potential for this coin.
