Ethereum Price Hits Support
Ethereum price started a fresh increase above the $3,1200 resistance like Bitcoin. ETH was able to climb above the $3,220 and $3,320 resistance levels to move further into a positive zone.
It even surged above the $3,400 level and traded to a new monthly high. A high was formed at $3,445 before there was a minor pullback. The price dipped below the $3,320 and $3,250 support levels. A low was formed at $3,124 and the price is now consolidating.
Ethereum price is now trading above $3,120 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $3,230 level or the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $3,340 swing high to the $3,124 low.
There is also a connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $3,240 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The first major resistance is near the $3,260 level. The main resistance is now forming near $3,320. A clear move above the $3,320 resistance might send the price toward the $3,450 resistance.

An upside break above the $3,450 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $3,550 resistance zone.
More Losses In ETH?
If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,250 resistance, it could start a downside correction. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,150 level. The first major support sits near the $3,120 zone.
A clear move below the $3,120 support might push the price toward $3,050. Any more losses might send the price toward the $3,000 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $2,880.
