The first resistance level for Ethereum is at $1,440 followed closely by $1,450. This level is near the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level from the latest fall from $1,662 to $1,402. On the 1-hour chart, we see a new downtrend forming with resistance at $1,460. Breaking this trendline will bring the price close the $1,500. In which case, the $1,550 is the next resistance level which is close to the 50% Fibonacci retracement level. Surpassing this level would likely form a new uptrend.
On the other hand, if Ethereum price fails to surpass the $1,460, the downtrend will continue. For this scenario, the $1,400 will be the first support level. Dipping below the $1,400 could push ETH close to $1,375. Further decline can bring Ethereum as low as $1,300.
