There was a break above the $565 and $570 level. Ether price even recovered above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $539 high to $550 swing low. However, the price is now facing many hurdles near $590, $592 and $595.

There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $592 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The trend line is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $539 high to $550 swing low.

A clear break above the $595 and $600 resistance levels could open the doors for more upsides. The next major resistance is near the $620 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average.

Fresh Decline in ETH?

If ethereum fails to surpass the $595 and $600 resistance levels, it could start a fresh decline. An initial support on the downside is near the $570 level.
