On the upside, immediate resistance for ETHUSD now stands at 188.91 today’s high, while more selling pressure will be met at the 100-day moving average at $182.17.

On the flip side first support for ETH stands at $181.17 daily low, below this level more buying interest might await at the lows seen at $153.
