If Ethereum fails to clear the $1,650 resistance, it could start a downside correction. Initial support on the downside is near the $1,615 level. The first major support sits near the $1,580 zone.
A clear move below the $1,580 support might push the price toward the $1,535 support and the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1,384 swing low to the $1,687 high.
