Ethereum price extended losses below the $3,000 level, like Bitcoin. ETH even tested the $2,820 support zone. A low was formed at $2,813 and the price started a recovery wave.

There was a decent move above the $2,880 and $2,950 resistance levels. The price cleared the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,355 swing high to the $2,813 low. Besides, there was a break above a key bearish trend line with resistance at $3,000 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.

The next key resistance sits at $3,085 or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,355 swing high to the $2,813 low, above which the price might gain traction and rise toward the $3,150 level.

If the bulls remain in action and push the price above $3,150, there could be a drift toward the $3,250 resistance. Any more gains could send Ether toward the $3,350 resistance zone.

If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,050 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,940 level. The first major support is near the $2,880 zone.

The main support is near the $2,820 level. A clear move below the $2,820 support might push the price toward $2,740. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,650 level in the near term.
