On the downside, there is a major support forming near the $1,340 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average. It is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent upward move from the $1,300 swing low to $1,389 high.

On the upside, the $1,390 and $1,400 levels are initial hurdles. The current price action suggests high chances of an upside break above the $1,400 resistance. In the stated case, the price could easily drift towards the $1,450 and $1,480 levels. The next major resistance is near the $1,500 level.

Fresh Dip in ETH?

If Ethereum fails to clear the $1,390 and $1,400 resistance levels, it could correct lower. As mentioned, there is a strong support forming near the $1,340 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average.

If ether price fails to stay above the $1,340 support, there is a risk of a drop towards the $1,320 support zone and the broken trend line.
