The 50% Fib retracement level of the downside correction from the $620 swing high to $480 swing low is also near the $550 level to act as a major resistance. A successful break above the $550 level could spark a strong upward move.
The next key resistance is near the $580 level. If ether clears the $580 resistance, it could even retest or surpass the $600 resistance level in the coming sessions.
Fresh Decline in Ether (ETH)?
If Ethereum fails to extend its rise above $550, it could start another downward move. The first major support zone sits near the $520 level.
The 100 simple moving average (4-hours) is also near the $512 level to act as a major support. A downside break below the $512 level and $500 might put ether at a risk of more losses below $480.
