There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $1,460 on the hourly chart for ETH/USDT. ETH’s price may rise to the $1,500 level if it is able to make a clear move above the trend resistance. The next major resistance will then be $1,550.
Should ETH fail to rise above the $1,460 resistance, its price could continue to fall. An initial support on the downside is near the $1,400 zone.
A clear move below the $1,400 support may push the price toward the $1,375 support zone. Any more pressure might see ETH’s price tumble down to the $1,300 support.
