Ethereum price started a fresh recovery wave above the $4,450 zone but failed. ETH is still struggling and might slide below the $4,220 zone.
Ethereum is still struggling to recover above the $4,400 zone. The price is trading below $4,400 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a short-term declining channel forming with resistance at $4,310 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken). The pair could start a decent increase if there is a close above the $4,350 level in the near term.Ethereum Price Remains At Risk
Ethereum price started a recovery wave after it formed a base above the $4,200 zone, like Bitcoin. ETH price was able to climb above the $4,350 and $4,400 resistance levels before the bears appeared.
The recent low was formed at $4,233 and the price is now consolidating losses. There was a minor increase above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $4,491 swing high to the $4,233 low. However, the bulls face an uphill task near $4,320.
Besides, there is a short-term declining channel forming with resistance at $4,310 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. Ethereum price is now trading below $4,320 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price could face resistance near the $4,300 level.

The first major resistance is near the $4,360 level or the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $4,491 swing high to the $4,233 low. A clear move above the $4,360 resistance might send the price toward the $4,420 resistance. An upside break above the $4,420 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $4,500 resistance zone or even $4,550 in the near term.
More Downside In ETH?
If Ethereum fails to clear the $4,360 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $4,260 level. The first major support sits near the $4,220 zone.
A clear move below the $4,220 support might push the price toward the $4,200 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $4,160 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $4,120.
