Ethereum Price Faces Another Rejection
Ethereum price attempted another rally above the $1900 resistance. However, ETH struggled to clear the $1920 resistance and started another drop, similar to Bitcoin.
There was a move below the $1,900 support zone. The bears pushed the price below the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of the up move from the $1,838 low to $1,914 high. Additionally, there was a break below a key uptrend line with support near $1,895 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.

If the price sustains above the $1865 support, it could try a further rise. Immediate resistance is near the $1,900 zone and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
