Ethereum closed the week trading slightly above $130 close to the 61.8% Fib retracement level between the last swing high of $135.62 and a swing low of $123.99.
The bearish trend on Monday saw Ethereum correct further to the south breaking below the support at $130 and $125. The bulls, keen to prevent decline below $120, drew a line in the sand at $124. There has been an upside correction above $125 and the Simple Moving Averages (both the 50-day SMA and the 100-day SMA).
