Ethereum fell by 4.12% on Tuesday. Following a 4.40% slide on Monday, Ethereum ended the day at $2,805.65.

A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning intraday high $2,971.16 before hitting reverse.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $3,087, Ethereum slid to a final hour intraday low $2,782.60.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the $2,853 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $2,924 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $2,900 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Tuesday’s high $2,971.16 would likely cap the upside.

In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at $3,100 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $3,042.

Failure to move through the $2,853 pivot would bring the 38.2% FIB of $2,740 and the first major support level at $2,735 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$2,700 levels. The second major support level sits at $2,665.
