A proper move above the $3,400 could increase the chances of a steady increase. The next major resistance sits near $3,500. Any more gains could set the pace for a move towards the $3,620 level.

More Losses in ETH?

If ethereum fails to continue higher above the $3,380 and $3,400 resistance levels, it could start another downward move. An initial support on the downside is near the $3,220 level.
