Ethereum (ETH/USD) weakened in today’s North American session as the pair depreciated to the 222.78 level after failing to sustain a move to the 232.77 level during yesterday’s North American session, just above the 50% retracement of the recent depreciation from 249.04 to 215.16. Stops were elected below the 228.10 and 223.16 levels during the move lower, representing the 38.2% and 23.6% retracements of the depreciating range. The pair was unable to hold the 228.70 area, one that is technically significant as it represents the 23.6% retracement of the recent appreciation from 148.08 to 253.60. Above the recent market high, traders are eyeing the 247.61 level as another hurdle with some Stops likely in place above. Significant buying pressure was recently seen that lifted ETH/USD through Stops above the 231.25, 232.61, and 234.29 levels, representing the 50%, 61.8%, and 76.4% retracements of the recent depreciation from 237.00 to 225.50. Above recent price activity, upside price objectives include the 260.23 and 262.90 areas.
