It declined by over 8% more than <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/analysis/btc/bitcoin-price-falls-65k/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">Bitcoin</a>. 
There was a break below a key declining channel with support at $3,380 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The pair even declined below the $3,200 level and tested $3,180. A low is formed near $3,183 and the price is showing signs of more losses. 
Ethereum is now trading below $3,400 and the <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/analysis/eth/ethereum-holding-pattern-3400/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">100-hourly Simple Moving Average</a>. If there is a recovery wave, the price could face resistance near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,500 swing high to the $3,183 low at $3,250.

A close above the $3,350 level might send Ether toward the $3,380 resistance. <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Ethereum_5d1062.png?resize=1024%2C461"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-631422 size-full" src="https://www.newsbtc.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Ethereum_5d1062.png?resize=1024%2C461" alt="Ethereum Price" width="1024" height="461" srcset="https://www.newsbtc.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Ethereum_5d1062.png?resize=1024%2C461?w=1835 1835w, https://www.newsbtc.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Ethereum_5d1062.png?resize=1024%2C461?w=460 460w, https://www.newsbtc.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Ethereum_5d1062.png?resize=1024%2C461?w=768 768w, https://www.newsbtc.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Ethereum_5d1062.png?resize=1024%2C461?w=860 860w, https://www.newsbtc.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Ethereum_5d1062.png?resize=1024%2C461?w=1536 1536w, https://www.newsbtc.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Ethereum_5d1062.png?resize=1024%2C461?w=750 750w, https://www.newsbtc.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Ethereum_5d1062.png?resize=1024%2C461?w=1140 1140w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" data-recalc-dims="1"></a>
