The extended bearish trend, formed at late April 2018’s swing hi $828.97, remained firmly intact. A reversal from June’s current year high $364.49 back through the 23.6% FIB of $257 reaffirmed the extended bearish trend.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Wednesday’s high $196.09.
Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level at $199.83 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of a breakout, Ethereum could test the second major resistance level at $206.41 before any pullback.
