Ethereum (ETH/USD) regained some lost ground early in today’s North American session as the pair appreciated to the 390.96 area after trading as low as the 380.75 area earlier in the North American session, just above levels of support earlier this week. Some Stops were recently elected above the 409.45 and 410.23 areas during the push higher, levels that represents the 76.4% and 78.6% retracements of the depreciating range from 417.86 to 382.21. During the recent pullback lower, Stops were elected below the 404.79, 400.48, 396.99, 393.50, 389.19, and 388.54 areas, retracement areas related to the recent appreciating range from 382.21 to 411.77. Additional Stops were recently triggered below the 385.98 area, representing the 61.8% retracement of the recent appreciating range from 364.04 to 421.47. Stops were recently elected above the 378.85 and 399.87 levels during the pair’s ascent, representing the 38.2% and 50% retracements of the recent depreciating range from 488.95 to 310.79. Traders are also observing that the 200-hour simple moving average just bearishly moved above the 100-hour simple moving average, and this could result in additional market weakness.
Additional upside price objectives include 420.89, 425.31, 427.78, 437.41, and 446.90. Following ETH/USD’s run-up, traders are paying close attention to the 403.11, 395.14, 388.69, 382.84, and 374.27 levels as areas of potential technical support. Additional areas of potential upside pressure include the 393.37, 379.37, and 368.05 levels. 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 maintain this level.
