Is Ethereum safe above $2K? Traders are watching these ETH price levels Ethereum market participants saw the 100-day SMA at $2,200 as particularly important for bulls to hold to avoid a deeper correction. Ether (ETH) analysts have mapped out key ETH price levels to watch over the next few weeks, with a focus on the $2,000 psychological level. Key takeaways: - Dropping below the 200-day simple moving average at $2,220 could confirm more downside for Ether. - ETH faces stiff resistance at $2,400, a level that must be reclaimed by the bulls. Ether price stuck between two key levels Data from TradingView showed the ETH/USD pair trading below $2,300, down 5% over the last two days and erasing all gains made over the weekend. This meant that the price remained wedged between the 100-day exponential moving average at $2,350 and the 100-day simple moving average (SMA) at $2,220, as shown in the chart below. This suggested that Ether could consolidate within these trend lines for a few more days before a decisive move. Telegram trading resource Technical Crypto Analyst said that after losing the support trendline at $2,300, “we can probably expect Ethereum to drop, and it might even hit the lower support level in the next few days,” adding: “A solid breakdown with good volume would confirm this.” ETH/USD daily chart.

In a recent post on X, trader Daan Crypto Trades said that the key levels to watch were $2,100 as support and the resistance at $2,800, which ETH price has “respected” well over the past few years.

Ethereum price must reclaim $2,400 to continue recovery As Cointelegraph also reported, Ether’s bullish case hinges on flipping the resistance at $2,400 into support, where the realized price currently is. “This is a very important psychological factor,” CryptoQuant analyst CW8900 said in a recent X post, adding: “Breaking through that line signifies that whales are transitioning to a profitable position.” ETH realized price.
