Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – March 13th, 2021

Ethereum

Ethereum fell by 3.22% on Friday. Reversing a 1.75% gain from Thursday, Ethereum ended the day at $1,767.79.

A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $1,841.96 before hitting reverse.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $1,874, Ethereum slid to an early afternoon intraday low $1,721.15.

The sell-off saw Ethereum fall through the first major support level at $1,752 before finding support.

Steering clear of sub-$1,700 levels, Ethereum revisited $1,780 levels before easing back.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 1.24% to $1,745.92. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $1,768.82 before falling to a low $1,745.47.

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

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the pivot level at $1,777 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,833.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $1,800 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $1,841.96 would likely cap any upside.

In the event of a breakout, Ethereum could test resistance at $1,900 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $1,898.

Failure to move through the $1,777 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,712 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$1,650 levels. The second major support level at $1,656 should limit the downside.

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