Ethereum (ETH/USD) recovered some lost ground early in today’s North American session as the pair appreciated to the 339.49 area after trading as low as the 334.29 area during the European session, right around a previous relative low in a depreciating range from the 370.25 area. The pair traded as high as the 342.36 area during the Asian session before moving to intraday lows. One depreciating range that traders are carefully monitoring is the recent move from 355.33 to 332.87, with the range’s next upside retracement levels being 344.10, 346.75, and 350.03. Traders are observing that the 50-hour simple moving average is bearishly converging with the 100-hour simple moving average. Traders recently took the pair as high as the 394.55 area, and selling pressure prevented a test of the 399.87 area, representing the 50% retracement of the recent depreciating range from 488.95 to 310.79. The next upside retracement levels in this range include the 420.89 and 446.90 areas.

The 396.69 area remains an important technical level, representing the 23.6% retracement of the historical depreciation from 1419.96 to 80.60, and traders are curious to see if ETH/USD can reclaim this level.
