Ethereum Classic Price Resistance
There was a decent upside move in ETC price above the $14.25 and $15.00 resistance levels against the US dollar. The ETC/USD pair traded close to the $16.00 resistance, which prevented further gains. There were a couple of attempts by buyers to break $16.00, but they failed. As a result, the price declined and moved below $15.00. There was a break below the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $13.21 low to $16.03 high.
The price also cleared the 100 hourly simple moving average, but it found support near $14.25. Moreover, the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $13.21 low to $16.03 high also provided support. ETC price bounced back and is currently trading above $15.00 and the 100 hourly SMA. On the upside, there is a major bearish trend line formed with resistance at $15.60 on the hourly chart of the ETC/USD pair. Above the trend line, the most important hurdle for buyers is near the $16.00 level.
The chart suggests that the price is slowly moving into a positive zone above $15.00. However, it must clear the $15.60 and $16.00 resistances to gain traction. On the downside, supports are seen near $14.60 and $14.25 levels.
