For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the $1,969 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $2,020 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $2,000 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Tuesday’s high $2,047.72 would likely cap any upside.

In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test the second major resistance level at $2,099.

Failure to move through the $1,969 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,900 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$1,800 levels. The second major support level at $1,838 should limit the downside.
