Ethereum Price AnalysisYesterday, we saw a strong rise in Ethereum price above the $255 resistance against the US Dollar. The ETH/USD pair even broke the $265 resistance and settled above the 100 hourly simple moving average. The upward move was strong since there was a spike above the $272 and $275 levels. The price traded close to the $280 level and a new weekly high was formed near $279.60. However, the bulls failed to clear the $280 barrier and the price is currently correcting lower.
It corrected below the $270 level and the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $246 low to $279 high.
