Ethereum price has more upsides

There was a clear move above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,956 swing high to the $3,680 low. Additionally, there was a break above a short-term bearish trendline with resistance at $3,870 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.
Ethereum price is now trading above $3,780 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles around the USD 3,890 level. It is close to the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,956 swing high to the $3,680 low.
The first major resistance is around the $3,950 level. The main resistance is now forming around $3,980. A clear move above the USD 3,980 resistance could send the price towards the USD 4,000 resistance. An upside break above the USD 4,000 resistance could fuel more gains in the coming sessions. In the mentioned case, Ether could rise towards the USD 4,050 resistance zone or even USD 4,120.
Another pullback in ETH?

A clear move below the USD 3,775 support could push the price towards the USD 3,720 support. Any further losses could send the price towards the USD 3,650 support level in the near term. The next major support is at $3,620.
