Ethereum Price Decline

There was a nasty decline in ETH price from well above $600 against the US Dollar. The price traded lower by more than $100 and crashed below many support levels. It declined below the $570, $540 and $525 support levels to move into a bearish zone. It almost tested the $500 level and is currently struggling to recover. The recent low was formed near the $506 level, which means close to the last swing level.

An upside correction is underway, which could lead the price towards the $530 level. An initial resistance is near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $608 high to $506 low. Above this, there are many hurdles near the $560 level. There is also a connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $560 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. Moreover, the 50% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $608 high to $506 low is also near the same level.

Looking at the chart, the price may correct a few points in the short term, but it could face a lot of barriers near $540 and $560. On the downside, the recent low of $506 is a short-term support. Below this, the price may even break $500.
