Ethereum
Ethereum rose by 4.07% on Wednesday. Reversing a 3.22% fall from Tuesday, Ethereum ended the day at $2,611.27.
A bearish start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning intraday low $2,406.33 before making a move.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $2,338, Ethereum rallied to a late afternoon intraday high $2,628.16.
Coming within range of the first major resistance level at $2,651, Ethereum eased back to end the day at $2,611 levels.

Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to avoid the $2,549 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $2,691 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Wednesday’s high $2,628.16.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at the 38.2% FIB of $2,740 and the second major resistance level at $2,770.
A fall through the $2,549 pivot would bring the first major support level at $2,469 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of the second major support level at $2,327.
