Recently, bitcoin price started a downside correction below $8,700. Similarly, there was a downward move in Ethereum price below the $270.00 and $265.00 support levels, but the $258.00 level acted as a strong buy zone.

Looking at the 2-hours chart, Ethereum price failed on multiple occasions near $277.00 and $280.00. As a result, there was a sharp downside correction below the $270.00 and $265.00 support levels.

The price even broke the 50% Fib retracement level of the last rally from the $246.29 to $280.05. There was a spike below the $260.00 support, but the $258.00 level acted as a strong support and prevented further losses.

More importantly, the price bounced back after testing the $258.00 support and the 50 simple moving average (2-hours, purple). The 61.8% Fib retracement level of the last rally from the $246.29 to $280.05 also acted as a decent support.

The price is now trading above the $265.00 and $270.00 level. However, the bulls are struggling near the $272.00 resistance and below a major bearish trend line on the same chart.
