Ethereum Sustains Recent Rallies as Bulls Battle the $3,240 Resistance

Ethereum (ETH) price has reached a high of $3,240.90 after a successful rally. Today, buyers failed to sustain the bullish momentum above the recent high. Ether is now fluctuating below the recent high.

The largest altcoin has fallen to a low of $3,203 as the market continues to falter. Buyers are trying to push Ether to the previous high of $3,329.70. However, if there is a breakout above resistance at $3,240, a rally to the high at $3,500 is likely. Bullish momentum will extend to the high of $4,000. On the other hand, if the bullish scenario fails, Ethereum will face another rejection that will force it to fall. Ether could fall and regain the previous low at $2,970.
