Ethereum price corrected lower below the USD 2,300 level. ETH even traded below USD 2,250, but it found a strong support near USD 2,200 and jumped above the USD 2,300 and USD 2,320 resistance levels.

BNB, LTC, DOGE, and XRP price

Binance Coin (BNB) is back above the USD 300 level. If BNB remains stable above USD 300, there are chances of a steady increase towards USD 325. Any more gains could set the pace for a move towards the USD 350 level. Conversely, the price could revisit USD 280.
Litecoin (LTC) is consolidating near the USD 140 level. An immediate support is near the USD 135 level, below which the price might test USD 128. On the upside, the main resistance is still near USD 150. A close above USD 150 might push the price in the near term.
Dogecoin (DOGE) failed to settle above the USD 0.250 resistance zone. It started a fresh decline and it traded below the USD 0.238 support before rallying back above USD 0.242.
XRP price is holding the key USD 0.650 support zone. If XRP trades below USD 0.650, it could gain bearish momentum. The next major support is near USD 0.620. Conversely, there are chances of a move towards the USD 0.700 level.
