The Ethereum price fight continues

Ethereum is still trading below $3,550 and the 100-hour uncomplicated moving average. A key bearish trend line is also forming on the hourly chart of ETH/USD with resistance near $3,550. If a up-to-date rally occurs, the price may face resistance near the $3,540 level and the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from a high of $3,655 to a low of $3,428.

The first major resistance is located near the $3,550 level and the trend line. An upward break above the resistance at $3,550 could result in a price rally. The next key resistance is at $3,650, above which the price may gain strength and rise to $3,720.

A clear move above the $3,720 level could push Ether towards the $3,800 resistance level. Any further gains could push Ether towards the $3,880 resistance zone.
