Ethereum recovery falters at $3,053; watching $2,900 and $2,880 support levels

Ethereum attempted a recovery above $2,920 and $2,950 but topped at $3,053 before sliding back under $3,000. It faces resistance at $2,930, $2,940, $2,955 and $2,980, with a contracting triangle on the hourly chart and the 100‑hour SMA overhead. A drop below $2,900 and $2,880 risks $2,840, $2,800, and $2,720; upside needs a break above $2,950 and $3,000.
