Ethereum
Ethereum slid by 6.86% on Wednesday. Reversing a 1.15% gain from Tuesday, Ethereum ended the day at $320.63.

Ethereum fell through the first major support level at $337.61 before striking an afternoon high $343.44.
The return to $340 levels was brief, however, with Ethereum sliding to a late intraday low $313.00.

Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
For the day ahead
Ethereum would need to move through the $326.09 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $339.18.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $330 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
Failure to move through the $326.09 pivot would bring the first major support level at $307.54 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$300 levels. The second major support level sits at $294.45.
