For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the $4,311 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $4,380 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $4,350 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Sunday’s high $4,427.72 would likely cap the upside.

Failure to move through the $4,311 pivot would bring the first major support level at $4,194 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$4,000 levels. The second major support level at $4,125 should limit the downside.
