If the bulls remain in action above $2,110, the price could attempt another increase. Immediate resistance is seen near the $2,140 level. The first key resistance is near the $2,150 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,197 swing high to the $2,075 swing low.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-897246\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ethereum_cb1309.png?resize=1024%2C512\" alt=\"Ethereum Price \" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The next major resistance is near the $2,176 level. A clear move above the $2,176 resistance might send the price toward the $2,220 resistance. An upside break above the $2,220 region might call for more gains in the coming days. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,265 resistance zone or even $2,320 in the near term.<\/p>\n<h2>Another Drop In ETH?<\/h2>\n<p>If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,150 resistance, it could start a fresh decline.
