The decline gained pace below $3650. Finally, bulls emerged near $3,550. The low was formed at $3557 and the price is now consolidating losses near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the swing high of $3920 to the low of $3557.

The next key resistance is near the $3740 level and the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent $3920 low to $3557. The first major resistance is near the $3,800 level.

In the said case, Ether could rise towards the resistance zone of $4000 or even $4050 in the near future.
