For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to move through the $396.77 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $402.54.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $400 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level should cap any upside.
Failure to move through the $396.77 pivot would bring the first major support level at $389.51 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should continue to steer clear of the second major support level at $383.74.
