Technical analysis shared by crypto analyst CryptoBullet on X highlighted a familiar price action that suggests that Bitcoin’s current structure may be closely tracking a 2022 price fractal. Bitcoin’s price action in recent days has changed into a more fragile posture, with the cryptocurrency falling back below the psychological $90,000 level after failing to sustain higher ground above $97,000 on January 14. How Bitcoin’s Current Structure Resembles The 2022 Fractal According to CryptoBullet, Bitcoin’s present price action is closely following an interesting structure that it previously played out in 2022. Technical analysis on the daily candlestick timeframe chart posted by the analyst shows the earlier 2022 move as a transparent projection layered behind current price action, with a striking similarity in both rhythm and volatility.

CryptoBullet noted, however, that there is an important distinction. During the 2022 decline, Bitcoin had already tested the 50-week moving average and the 200-day moving average at this stage of the cycle. In the current setup, Bitcoin’s price action is trading below those levels but has not yet made a direct test, and this means that the structure may still be incomplete. What The 2022 Outcome Predicts For Bitcoin’s Next Move The projection in the background of the chart shows Bitcoin making one more push higher over the coming month, briefly reclaiming levels above $100,000 before running into a strong resistance at the 50-week moving average.

CryptoBullet noted that timing also supports this idea, noting that considering the 2022 top is lined up with the October 2025 top, there appears to be roughly one month of price action left for a final leg up. The projection is that Bitcoin pushes to at least $100,000 again sometime in February 2026. However, support must hold above $83,000 in order for this bullish portion of the setup to be valid. Although the short-term projection is bullish, the broader implication of the 2022 fractal is bearish for the mid-term. According to the chart’s projected path, Bitcoin is shown rejecting at the 50-week moving average after a brief rally, followed by a sustained decline that eventually drags its price action below $71,500. This prediction is based on exactly what unfolded in 2022, when a final pump gave way to a deeper corrective phase. That said, fractals are guides, not guarantees, meaning price history may rhyme, but it does not always repeat itself exactly. Featured image from Pngtree, chart from Tradingview.com
Ethereum is approaching a pivotal juncture that could define its next major move. After weeks of impressive recovery, the chart is now flashing a familiar and powerful pattern — one that echoes the 2019–2020 breakout structure. With ETH pressing against a long-standing resistance line for the third time, a potential breakout could spark a massive rally. However, as momentum builds, a brief pullback may still be on the cards before the bulls take full control. Ethereum Poised For A Massive Move Crypto analyst CryptoBullet has spotted something interesting on Ethereum’s weekly chart. In his post, the expert notes that ETH is displaying a strong recovery and forming what appears to be a Descending Broadening Wedge, a rare yet historically bullish pattern. According to CryptoBullet, this setup bears a striking resemblance to what occurred between 2019 and 2020, just before Ethereum embarked on a massive run. Related Reading: Ethereum’s Breakout Above The MA50 Suggests Further Upside, Here’s The Target CryptoBullet emphasizes that the current price action is looking very bullish. He points out that Ethereum is now testing the wedge resistance for the third time, which typically increases the chances of a breakout. Despite the optimism, CryptoBullet remains realistic about near-term volatility. He suggests that Ethereum could face a brief 10–15% pullback near the current resistance zone. Such a move would be healthy and could offer a final shakeout before liftoff. If ETH manages to break above this key resistance, CryptoBullet believes it would confirm the bullish pattern and open the door to a significant rally. In that scenario, he believes a new all-time high is almost inevitable. Short-Term Pullback Possible—But The Bigger Trend Remains Intact According to Andrew Crypto in a recent post, Ethereum has shown exceptional strength over the past few weeks, pushing through key levels and maintaining bullish momentum. While this kind of rally is exciting, markets rarely move up in a straight line without occasional corrections. Healthy trends often include pullbacks that allow momentum to reset and provide stronger support for the next leg up. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Breaks Through 50EMA After Rejection, ETH Dominance Sees Resurgence Andrew pointed out that ETH recently got rejected from a local supply zone, which could act as a short-term ceiling. However, this rejection toward the Yearly Open (YO) level, positioned at $3,335, would be a logical and healthy move. A retest of this level could serve as a launching pad for the next rally, especially if buyers step in with conviction. While Andrew clarified that a correction isn’t guaranteed, he mentioned that he wouldn’t be surprised if it happens. In his view, such a dip shouldn’t be feared but rather seen as a potential opportunity, especially for those who missed out on the initial run. A well-timed pullback could restore balance to the chart and bolster Ethereum’s price. Featured image from Pixabay, chart from Tradingview.com
Ethereum’s price action in the past seven days has seen it finally touch the $3,000 resistance zone for the first time in months. This interesting move comes amid growing institutional attention caused by the massive inflows into Spot Ethereum ETFs and Bitcoin’s recent climb to new all-time highs. Ethereum has gained over 17% in the past seven days alone, reaching a new local high of $3,065. Interestingly, bullish technical structures are starting to emerge that could send the ETH price soaring toward new all-time highs. Two analysts have now spotted classic bullish setups, both hinting at a significant rally on the horizon. Cup And Handle Pattern Points To $4,200 If Breakout Holds The first analyst, known as @CryptosBatman on the social media platform X, shared a daily candlestick chart of Ethereum, where a pure ‘cup and handle’ pattern is visible over the past four months. The pattern, which started in early March, shows a rounded bottom that dipped to as low as $1,400, followed by a minor consolidation that formed the handle portion. Now, recent price action has caused ETH to break out of the neckline around $2,850. A technical projection from this neckline points to a 45% move to a price target just below $4,200. Related Reading: Ethereum Is Already Outperforming Bitcoin In July, Is Altcoin Season Here? According to this analyst, Ethereum’s breakout from the cup and handle pattern has formed in the middle of powerful fundamentals. Ethereum is now beginning to outperform Bitcoin in terms of short-term returns, and exchange reserves have dropped to an eight-year low. These are both fundamental signals of strong holding behavior and reduced sell-side pressure. With these metrics aligning with the technical breakout, @CryptosBatman believes Ethereum could be next in line to break its all-time high, possibly before the end of Q3. Weekly Chart Echoes Previous 42% Rally Another crypto market technician, CryptoBullet, expressed a similar sentiment on the social media platform X. This analyst referenced Ethereum’s weekly candlestick chart to support his outlook. He pointed to the formation of last week’s massive green breakout candle that has pushed the price above a major supply-resistance zone around $2,850. This move, as shown in the chart below, mirrors the same structure that caused a 42% rally between February and March 2024, when ETH moved from the $2,900 level up to nearly $4,100 within a matter of weeks. Related Reading: Ethereum To Outperform Bitcoin: Buy Before Mid-August, Analyst Warns If that price action is replicated in this current setup, Ethereum could again be on track to test $4,200 in the next three to four weeks. This puts the timeline of a $4,200 price target sometime in August 2025. The projection is shown with the vertical price range box drawn in the chart above, which maps a 42% upside from the breakout zone. Interestingly, this projection relies on the $2,800 price level, which previously acted as resistance, now flipping to support and preventing any sustained retracements below the $2,900 to $2,850 range. At the time of writing, Ethereum is trading at $2,980, having reached an intraday high of $3,074. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com
