Ethereum
On the hourly chart of ETH/USD, Ethereum is trading above $3,650 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. A positive trend line connecting the two is forming, with support at $3,480.
The $3,725 level is the immediate obstacle, while the $3,750 level is the first significant opposition. The next significant resistance is at $3,800, and a test of that level might take Ether to $3,880, where positive momentum could build.
Ethereum may begin a downward correction if it is unable to overcome the $3,725 resistance. Near the $3,620 mark is where initial downside support is located. The trend line or the $3,500 zone is the first significant support.
