At the time of writing, Ethereum faces resistance around the $2,380 mark. If it manages to break through the $2,400 level, it could move toward the $2,465 resistance. A further rise above $2,500 might push Ethereum towards the $2,550 zone.

On the downside, if Ethereum struggles to surpass the $2,400 resistance, it may experience a decline. Key support levels include $2,335 and the trend line. Major support is around $2,300, corresponding to the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the recent upward movement from $2,242 to $2,398.
