In the stated case, the price could rise towards the $1,250 resistance. If the bulls remain in action, the price might climb towards the $1,320 zone.

Fresh Decline in ETH?

If ethereum fails to rise above the $1,200 resistance, it could start a downside correction. An initial support on the downside is near the $1,160 zone.
