An immediate resistance on the upside is near the $1,350 level and the triangle trend line. The first major resistance is near the $1,365 and $1,370 levels. The main barrier is still near the $1,400 zone. A clear upside break above the $1,400 resistance zone could open the doors for a strong increase. In the stated case, the price might climb towards the $1,500 level.

If ethereum fails to climb above the $1,350 resistance, it could continue to move down. An initial support on the downside is near the $1,320 level.

The next major support is near the $1,310 level and the $1,300 zone. It is near the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward wave from the $1,250 swing zone to $1,370 high. A downside break below the $1,300 zone might start a fresh decline to $1,270 in the near term.
