It is also holding the $2,700 support and the 100 hourly simple moving average. An initial resistance on the upside is near the $2,780 and $2,800 levels. The first major resistance is near the $2,850 level.

The main breakout resistance is now forming near the $2,900 level. A close above the $2,900 level will most likely call for a test of the $3,000 barrier in the near term.

If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,800 and $2,850 resistance levels, it could extend its decline. An initial support on the downside is near the $2,700 level.

The main support is now forming near the $2,680 level and the 100 hourly SMA. A downside break below $2,680 and $2,650 could open the doors for a larger decline. In the stated case, ether price might revisit USD 2,500.
