It's a relatively bullish start to the day. The majors will need to break through the pivot levels, however, to support the recovery of Monday's losses.

Ripple, Dash coin, Bitcoin, Monero and Ethereum

Ethereum

Ethereum fell by 1.01% on Monday. Reversing a 1.06% gain from Sunday, Ethereum ended the day at $353.91

It was a bullish start to the day. Ethereum rallied to a midday intraday high $368.52 before hitting reverse.

The early rally saw Ethereum break through the first major resistance level at $364.74 and the 38.2% FIB of $367.

The reversal saw Ethereum slide to a final hour intraday low $351.88. While falling back through the 38.2% FIB and the first major resistance level, Ethereum steered clear of the major support levels.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 0.25% to $354.79. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $351.65 before rising to a high $355.34.

Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the $358.10 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $364.33.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $360 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and 38.2% FIB of $367 would likely cap any upside.

Failure to move through the $358.10 pivot would bring the first major support level at $347.69 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$340 levels. The second major support level at $341.46 should limit any downside.

Looking at the Technical Indicators

First Major Support Level: $347.69

Pivot Level: $358.10

First Major Resistance Level: $364.33

23.6% FIB Retracement Level: $257

The early rally saw Litecoin break through the first major resistance level at $46.94 before falling to a low $46.02.

Another rally in the late morning saw Litecoin break back through the first major resistance level before hitting reverse.
