The current price action is bullish and suggests a high chance of more gains in the coming days. Immediate resistance is near the $2,620 level. The first significant resistance sits near the $2,710 zone. If there is a clear move above the $2,710 resistance, the price could drift toward the next important resistance at $2,880.

A close above the $2,880 level could set the pace for a move toward the $3,000 level. The next key resistance could be near the $3,050 level. Any more losses could send Ether price toward the $3,120 level in the coming days.

Another Decline In ETH?

Ethereum could start another decline if it fails to clear the $2,710 resistance. Immediate support on the downside is near the $2,440 level. The first significant support sits near the $2,400 and trend lines.

A daily close below the $2,400 level might spark a larger decline in Ethereum. The price could drop and retest the $2,120 support in the stated case. If there is a clear move below the $2,120 support, the ETH price might even decline and test the $2,000 handle.

Overall, the Ethereum price is showing positive signs above the $2,400 level. If the bulls remain active, they could soon aim to move above the $2,620 and $2,710 resistance levels. If not, there could be a fresh decline toward $2,120.
