A swing low was formed near $183 and the price recently started a fresh increase. The price gained pace and broke the $185 and $186 resistance levels. Moreover, there was a break above the $190 resistance.
A new weekly high was formed near $192 and Ethereum price again corrected below $190. Besides, there was a break below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent move from the $183 swing low to $192 swing high.
