On the hourly chart, ETH trades inside an ascending parallel channel with price near the midpoint and support from the 100-hour moving average below. Buyers have failed to clear $485 in recent days.

A break above $485 would put the 100-hour moving average in play as support, with $530 as the next target. Traders will look for consolidation near $500 on the way.

If sellers push price below the channel's midline, the narrative flips. ETH must hold above the 100-hour moving average for bullish momentum to continue. A breakdown there could drive losses to $450, with more substantial support near $440 at the base of the parallel channel.

Bitcoin hit $16,750 and approaches $17,000. Litecoin outperforms other major altcoins with a 15% gain and approaches $80.
