Recently, ETH price climbed above the $125 resistance made an attempt to break $128 against the US Dollar. However, the ETH/USD pair failed to gain strength above the $128 resistance and later declined. It moved below the $125 and $123 support levels. More importantly, there was a break below the $121 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
