A major rising channel is also forming on the hourly chart of ETH / USD with support near USD 1,910. On the upside, ether faces resistance near the USD 1,950 level. The next hurdle could be $ 1,960 and the upper trendline of the channel.

Dips supported at ETH?
Unless Ethereum extends its surge past the $ 1,950 level, it could go further down. The first major support is near the USD 1,910 level and the channel trendline. The next major support is near the $ 1,880 level.
Further losses could push the price towards the USD 1,850 support zone. It is close to the 50% fib retracement level of the recent spike from $ 1,734 to $ 1,950. The 100 hour simple moving average is also near the $ 1,850 zone. A downside break below the $ 1,850 support could require a move back to the $ 1,780 level.
