Ethereum Price Remains Supported

There was a downside correction below the $1,900 and $1,885 levels. The price spiked below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1,836 swing low to the $1,929 high. However, the bulls were active above the $1,870 level.

The next major support is near the $1,870 zone or the trend line. If there is a close below the $1,870 support, the price could decline toward the 100 hourly SMA. Any more losses may perhaps send the price toward the $1,815 level in the coming sessions, below which it could test $1,800.
