Ethereum price formed a base above $1,380 and started a fresh increase, like Bitcoin. ETH gained pace for a move above the $1,450 and $1,500 resistance levels.

The pair even cleared the $1,620 resistance zone. A high was formed at $1,687 and the price is now consolidating gains above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1,384 swing low to the $1,687 high.
Ethereum price is now trading above $1,550 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $1,650 level.
The next key resistance is near the $1,680 level. The first major resistance is near the $1,720 level. A clear move above the $1,720 resistance might send the price toward the $1,750 resistance. An upside break above the $1,750 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $1,850 resistance zone or even $1,880 in the near term.
If Ethereum fails to clear the $1,650 resistance, it could start a downside correction. Initial support on the downside is near the $1,615 level. The first major support sits near the $1,580 zone.
A clear move below the $1,580 support might push the price toward the $1,535 support and the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1,384 swing low to the $1,687 high. Any more losses might send the price toward the $1,480 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $1,420.
