ETH price was able to surpass the $2,920 and $2,950 resistance levels to enter a positive zone.<\/p>\n<p>The bulls pushed the price above the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,175 swing high to the $2,775 low. The price even spiked above the $3,050 resistance zone. However, the bears remained active near $3,080.<\/p>\n<p>Ethereum price is now trading above $2,980 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is also a rising channel forming with support at $2,975 on the hourly chart of ETH\/USD.<\/p>\n<p>If there is another upward move, the price could face resistance near the $3,050 level.

A clear move above the $3,150 resistance might send the price toward the $3,220 resistance. An upside break above the $3,220 region might call for more gains in the coming days. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $3,250 resistance zone or even $3,265 in the near term.<\/p>\n<h2>Another Decline In ETH?<\/h2>\n<p>If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,080 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,980 level and the trend line. The first major support sits near the $2,915 zone.<\/p>\n<p>A clear move below the $2,915 support might push the price toward the $2,840 support.
