Starting with the 2-hour chart of ETH/USD, there was a clear bullish break above the $440.00 and $450.00 resistance levels. More importantly, there was a break above the 61.8 percent Fibonacci retracement level of the last decline from the $495.49 high to $418.40 low.
Ether’s price settled above the $450.00 resistance and also formed a large green candle, signaling improvement in the market sentiment. It tested the 76.4 percent Fibonacci retracement level of the last decline near $476.00, which acted as a resistance.

However, the most important support is around $450.00 (the previous significant resistance) and the 50 percent Fibonacci retracement level of the recent upward move from the $418.40 low to $476.98 high.
