Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – January 16th, 2021

Ethereum

Ethereum slid by 5.16% on Friday. Partially reversing an 8.89% rally from Thursday, Ethereum ended the day at $1,168.1.

A bullish start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning intraday high $1,255.59 before hitting reverse.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $1,290, Ethereum slid to a late afternoon intraday low $1,065.0.

The reversal saw Ethereum fall through the first major support level at $1,130, briefly revisiting $1,175 levels.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 2.01% to $1,191.62. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum fall to an early morning low $1,168.29 before rising to a high $1,195.51.

Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid a fall through the pivot level at $1,163 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,261.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Friday’s high $1,255.59.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance $1,300 would likely cap any upside.

In the event of an extended crypto rally, Ethereum could test resistance at $1,400 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $1,354.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $1,163 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,070 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of the second major support level at $972.31. The 23.6% FIB of $1,051 should limit the downside.
