Ethereum is surging on the back of BTC rising almost 30% this week. The cryptocurrency managed to break the 50-day MA over the weekend and continued higher from hitting resistance at a descending trend line on Monday.
Since then, ETH has struggled to break resistance at around $2340, provided by a bearish .236 Fib Retracement level. This is the July resistance, and a candle must close above it on the daily chart to signal a potential bull run ahead.
On the 4-hour chart, ETH is trading inside a short-term ascending price channel. It is using the lower angle of this price channel as local support.
