Ethereum Price Struggles Below $2,325

A clear move above the $2,440 level might send the price further higher. In the stated case, the price could rise toward the $2,500 level.

More Losses in ETH?

If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,325 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,270 level.
