A clear move above the $2,700 resistance could stage a strong upward move. The next key resistance is near the $2,800 level, above which ether price might accelerate higher towards the $3,000 resistance zone in the near term.

Fresh Decline in ETH?

If ethereum fails to start a fresh increase above the $2,700 resistance, it could start another decline. An initial support on the downside is near the $2,660 level and the 100 hourly SMA.

A downside break below the 100 hourly SMA might put pressure on the bulls. The next major support is near the $2,600 level, below which there is a risk of a sharp decline. In the stated case, the price might dive towards the $2,500 level or $2,480.
