Ethereum had a relatively quiet weekend, with price action showing signs of stability after last week’s volatility. ETH has reclaimed the $4,100 level, and analysts now point to the $4,000 mark as a crucial line of defense. If bulls manage to hold above this support, the market could see a strong surge in the coming days, setting the stage for Ethereum to retest higher levels. Related Reading: Ethereum OI Suffers Its Biggest Cleanup Since Early 2024 – Details Adding weight to this outlook, a key report by CryptoQuant highlights that Ethereum supply on spot exchanges continues to decline. This trend often signals that investors are withdrawing ETH to self-custody or staking, reducing available sell-side liquidity on exchanges. Historically, such declines in exchange reserves have paved the way for rallies, as demand eventually absorbs the reduced supply. However, while the data is supportive, analysts caution that the real catalyst remains demand. Without strong inflows of new buyers, supply-side reductions alone may not be enough to push ETH significantly higher. The coming days will therefore be critical, with Ethereum’s ability to hold above $4,000 serving as a key indicator of whether the next leg of the rally is ready to unfold. Ethereum Outflows Point to Long-Term Bullish Setup According to the CryptoQuant report, recent Ethereum outflows from spot exchanges are largely tied to new buys, where investors purchase ETH and immediately move it into self-custody or staking. This behavior reduces sell-side liquidity and, over time, can create the foundation for price appreciation. Looking at past cycles, clear patterns emerge: Network Congestion & UNI Airdrops: During this phase, high gas fees and strong macro tailwinds fueled demand. Outflows accelerated, leading to a robust bull run as liquidity tightened. Late Bear Phase & FTX Collapse: At the peak of quantitative tightening (QT), the FTX crisis sparked a bank run, with older coins leaving exchanges. Despite fear, improving macro conditions soon restored demand, driving ETH higher. We see the same trend today: reserves are falling, yet prices remain flat as selling offsets new buying. Historically, once demand strengthens, these periods lead to rallies. Importantly, this is not a supply shock in the strict financial sense. Instead, it reflects reduced exchange reserves and lower sell-side pressure. The question is whether demand will accelerate. If rate cuts, slower QT, and rising global liquidity continue, ETH could be primed for a strong long-term move. In the meantime, price volatility is expected. If ETH dips below the accumulating whales’ realized price, it may offer a buying opportunity, just as it has in past cycles. This dynamic shows investor trust in Ethereum and reinforces the view that falling reserves prepare the ground for the next rally.

Ethereum (ETH) is attempting to stabilize after its sharp drop below the $4,000 level, with the latest chart showing a modest recovery to around $4,131. The bounce comes after ETH briefly tested lows near $3,900, suggesting that buyers are stepping in to defend this critical support area. On the 8-hour chart, ETH has reclaimed the 200-day EMA (red line), which is now acting as a short-term pivot point. However, the 50-day (blue) and 100-day (green) moving averages remain above the current price, creating overhead resistance between $4,250 and $4,400. A clean break and consolidation above these levels will be necessary for bulls to regain momentum and target higher ranges toward $4,600.

The recent rejection from $4,600 and the subsequent breakdown highlight the intensity of selling pressure. Still, the rebound from sub-$4,000 levels signals that demand remains strong, particularly from accumulation wallets and whales, which have been absorbing supply. If ETH holds above $4,000 and pushes through $4,250, the market could enter a recovery phase. Conversely, failure to maintain this rebound may expose ETH to a retest of $3,800 or even lower support zones. The coming sessions will be critical in defining ETH’s short-term trend.

Ethereum is trading at a critical level after several days of selling pressure and mounting speculation, with bulls struggling to maintain momentum as Bitcoin and the broader crypto market turn bearish. Price action has shifted into a cautious phase, and ETH now faces the challenge of defending key demand zones that could determine the weeks ahead. Related Reading: Bitcoin Index Highlights Two Accumulations And Five Distribution Waves This Cycle – Details Despite this pullback, Ethereum remains the standout performer in the market. Fresh data from Glassnode reveals that over the past month, no altcoin sector has outperformed ETH, although DeFi and Layer 2 ecosystems came close. This resilience underscores Ethereum’s dominance even in times of broader market weakness, reinforcing its role as the backbone of decentralized finance and blockchain infrastructure. The trend also suggests that the market is entering what many analysts describe as “Ethereum season,” where ETH leads performance and capital rotation from Bitcoin into altcoins begins to accelerate. With institutions, whales, and retail investors watching closely, Ethereum’s ability to hold its ground while others falter highlights its strength heading into the next stage of the cycle. Ethereum Leads Market As Capital Rotation Accelerates According to Glassnode, Ethereum has established itself as the clear leader in the market over the past month. No altcoin sector has managed to outperform ETH during this period, with only DeFi and Layer 2 ecosystems coming close. Notably, most altcoin sectors ended the month in decline, reinforcing Ethereum’s relative strength in a volatile environment. This performance signals a clear shift in capital rotation, as flows begin moving away from Bitcoin and into Ethereum, marking what many analysts see as the beginning of a new stage in the cycle. Capital rotation has long been a hallmark of crypto market dynamics. Traditionally, rallies begin with Bitcoin dominance before liquidity spreads into Ethereum and then, eventually, into smaller altcoins. The latest data shows ETH taking center stage in this process, attracting both institutional interest and whale accumulation. This suggests that investors view Ethereum as the next engine of growth, supported by strong fundamentals and expanding adoption across DeFi, NFTs, and enterprise use cases. Still, sentiment remains divided. Some analysts argue that this cycle is structurally longer, stretched by institutional products like spot ETFs and increased global adoption, meaning Ethereum could continue to outperform for months. Others remain cautious, warning that the market’s current weakness could be the early signal of a broader bearish trend. Regardless of these opposing views, Ethereum’s leadership in performance and its ability to outpace nearly every altcoin sector highlight its growing importance in defining the next stage of the crypto market. For many, ETH is setting the tone for where capital flows—and opportunities—are headed next. Related Reading: Ethereum Exchange Reserves Decline – Strong Accumulation Signal ETH Pulls Back After Explosive Rally Ethereum is trading around $4,366 after a sharp weekly decline of nearly 9%, following its recent push to new highs near $4,800. The weekly chart highlights a powerful rally that began earlier this summer, lifting ETH from lows below $2,000 to almost double its value in just a few months. However, the latest red candle shows that sellers are stepping in as the market digests this steep run-up. Despite the correction, ETH remains firmly above its major moving averages. The 50-week ($2,863), 100-week ($2,819), and 200-week ($2,446) moving averages are all trending upward, confirming that the long-term structure is still bullish. These levels now serve as strong layers of support should deeper retracements occur. Related Reading: Bitcoin Supply In Profit Hits Historical Threshold – Echoing Past Patterns In the short term, Ethereum is testing the $4,200–$4,300 demand zone, which aligns with previous resistance levels from 2022 and early 2024.

Ethereum is entering a decisive phase in its bull cycle, pushing into fresh highs after finally breaking above its 2021 all-time high of $4,860. The move comes as bulls regained full control of the market following a remarkable 14% surge on Friday, marking one of the strongest single-day performances of the year. Related Reading: TRON Spot Market Signals Relief – Seller Dominance Weakens After Cycle High The rally was ignited by remarks from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell at the Jackson Hole symposium. In his speech, Powell hinted at a potential easing of US monetary policy, stating that restrictive conditions may no longer be appropriate as risks shift. The market reaction was immediate: within minutes, both equities and cryptocurrencies spiked sharply, with Ethereum leading the charge in the altcoin sector. At the same time, derivatives market data confirms the intensity of the move. Open Interest (OI) surged aggressively as traders piled into leveraged positions, reflecting renewed speculative appetite. The sudden influx of liquidity added fuel to Ethereum’s rally, pushing price momentum beyond its multi-year resistance level. With ETH now in uncharted territory, analysts see potential for continuation as long as OI expansion does not overheat into excessive leverage. The coming weeks will determine whether this breakout sustains or turns into another volatile correction. Ethereum Derivatives Signal Historic Momentum Ethereum’s breakout into new highs is being reinforced by extraordinary action in the derivatives market. According to top analyst Maartunn, at least $3.18 billion in new positions have entered Ethereum derivatives within just 24 hours, pushing Open Interest (OI) up nearly 10%. He described this as “insane stuff,” highlighting the scale and speed at which traders are positioning for the next move. This surge in OI indicates aggressive speculation, with investors betting on Ethereum’s momentum continuing after breaching its 2021 all-time high. While higher OI often fuels rallies by injecting liquidity, it can also create sharp volatility if leveraged positions unwind. Still, the magnitude of the inflows reflects growing conviction in ETH’s upside potential. At the same time, Ethereum’s Taker Buy Volume (hourly) has reached a multi-month high of $5.76 billion. This metric, which captures aggressive market buy orders, shows that demand is not just speculative but also immediate. Such strong taker-side activity often coincides with breakout phases, when bulls dominate both spot and derivatives markets. Related Reading: Bitcoin Bull Score Index Signals Fading Momentum: Room For Downside? Price Surges To Retest New Highs The 4-hour ETH chart shows Ethereum exploding higher, pushing above $4,800 after a sharp breakout from recent consolidation. This surge follows a bounce near the 100-period SMA (green line around $4,298), where bulls defended support aggressively before sending the price into a vertical move. Ethereum is now retesting its previous all-time high region around $4,860, with momentum signaling strong buying pressure. The 50-period SMA (blue line) is turning upward again, confirming a short-term bullish structure. Meanwhile, the 200-period SMA (red line around $3,994) remains comfortably below the price, showing the broader uptrend is intact. Related Reading: Bitcoin Retail Transfers Collapse: Lowest Since Bull Market Peak In 2021 This rally also broke through a series of lower highs formed during the recent pullback, suggesting that bearish control has faded. Volume spikes during the breakout add confidence to the strength of this move. If bulls sustain momentum, Ethereum could enter price discovery, targeting the $5,000 psychological level. However, if rejection occurs at $4,860, ETH may retest the $4,400–$4,500 support zone, where the moving averages converge. The chart highlights a critical phase: Ethereum either continues its breakout toward new highs or consolidates before another attempt. Bulls clearly hold the upper hand after this explosive breakout.

Ethereum reached multi-year highs, breaking decisively above the $4,300 level after several days of strong bullish momentum. This breakout marks Ethereum’s highest level since late 2021, fueled by growing institutional demand, ETF inflows, and expanding on-chain activity. However, fresh market data from CryptoQuant suggests that caution may be warranted in the short term. Related Reading: Altseason Still On Hold – Metrics Reveal BTC Outpaces Large, Mid, Small Caps The all-exchange Estimated Leverage Ratio (ELR) has climbed to 0.68, approaching historical highs and signaling excessive market-wide leverage. While Binance’s ELR sits lower at 0.52, indicating more measured positioning on the world’s largest exchange, higher relative leverage on other platforms points to elevated speculative activity elsewhere. Ethereum’s price is currently testing a critical resistance zone between $4,020 and $4,060—a historically pivotal area that has often determined whether a rally accelerates or faces a sharp pullback. Adding to the short-term risk profile, Binance netflows have spiked significantly above the all-exchange average, suggesting concentrated inflows that may lead to localized sell pressure, possibly linked to liquidations or arbitrage-driven trades. Ethereum Mid-Term Outlook: Institutional Flows and Network Strength According to Crypto Onchain, a CryptoQuant analyst, Ethereum’s mid-term fundamentals remain strongly bullish despite short-term caution signals. Institutional demand is surging, with US Spot Ethereum ETFs recording a record $726.6 million in daily net inflows, driven by giants like BlackRock and Fidelity. This has pushed total ETF holdings above 5 million ETH (valued at approximately $20.3 billion), a milestone that underscores Ethereum’s growing role in institutional portfolios. Beyond ETFs, major players are increasing direct exposure. Ark Invest purchased 30,755 ETH worth $108.57 million, while Fundamental Global allocated $200 million to ETH as part of its treasury strategy. This wave of accumulation reflects deepening confidence in Ethereum’s long-term utility and value proposition. On-chain metrics also paint a bullish picture. Transaction volumes are hitting new highs, and staking participation continues to expand, locking up more ETH and reducing circulating supply. Regulatory clarity—such as the SEC closing investigations into liquid staking—has further strengthened structural demand for ETH. Upcoming network upgrades, including Pectra and Fusaka, are set to boost scalability and lower costs. This will enhance Ethereum’s appeal to both developers and enterprises. In the short term, high leverage, key resistance levels, and concentrated exchange inflows pose a risk of sharp volatility. However, the mid-term outlook remains intact, supported by sustained institutional inflows, robust network growth, and technological advancements. Even if near-term corrections occur, these factors should help cap downside pressure and maintain Ethereum’s broader bullish trajectory. Related Reading: Bitcoin Holds Strong Near All-Time High – Market Not Overheated Yet, Data Shows Price Action Details: Setting Fresh highs Ethereum’s 4-hour chart shows a strong breakout above the key resistance at $3,860, which had capped price action in late July. Following this decisive move, ETH surged past the $4,300 level, marking its highest point since November 2021. This rally was supported by strong bullish momentum, as seen in the steep incline of the 50-period SMA (blue) and the price holding well above the 100-period (green) and 200-period (red) SMAs. Currently, ETH is consolidating just below its recent peak, around $4,240, signaling a potential pause before the next move. This consolidation at elevated levels, rather than a sharp retracement, suggests that bulls remain in control. The $3,860–$3,900 zone now acts as a critical support, and a retest could provide a healthy setup for continuation. Related Reading: Bitcoin–S&P 500 Correlation Hits 80%, Tying Crypto To Stocks Volume spikes during the breakout indicate strong buying interest, but the reduced volume in the latest candles suggests the market is waiting for fresh catalysts.

Ethereum just broke above the critical $3,000 level, marking a major technical milestone after surging over 20% since Tuesday. This decisive breakout signals renewed strength in the second-largest cryptocurrency, with bulls reclaiming control after weeks of tight consolidation. The move is reigniting interest across the broader altcoin market, which had remained relatively muted during Bitcoin’s recent rally to all-time highs. Now, with ETH leading the charge, many altcoins are showing signs of reversal and upward momentum. Related Reading: Altcoins Jump Off Critical Support Level – Relief Or Reversal? According to top analyst Ted Pillows, a key factor behind Ethereum’s rally is the large concentration of liquidity resting just above the $3,000 mark. Once Ethereum cleared the $2,850 resistance, momentum rapidly accelerated, driving price through the $3,000 level and into a new range of opportunity. This rally comes amid a broader shift in market sentiment. As Bitcoin sets record highs, Ethereum and other altcoins appear poised to catch up. The big question now: can ETH maintain this level and lead a full altcoin season, or is this just a temporary breakout before another round of consolidation? Ethereum Breaks Out Of Consolidation Range Ethereum has spent the last several weeks consolidating within a clearly defined range that began in early May. The altcoin hovered between support around $2,800 and resistance just below $3,000, with multiple failed attempts to break above. That changed yesterday. ETH finally closed above this key resistance, signaling a potential breakout and confirming the start of a new bullish phase. This move comes as broader macroeconomic conditions improve. Strong labor market data in the US, alongside signs of de-escalation in several global conflicts, have helped reduce uncertainty and reignite risk appetite across financial markets. With Bitcoin reaching new highs and risk-on sentiment returning, Ethereum’s breakout may signal the next wave of upside for altcoins. Top analyst Ted Pillows highlighted a key technical factor: “ETH liquidity is lying above $3,000 — and liquidity is a magnet.” This means that large clusters of buy and stop orders are concentrated above this level, attracting price movement toward those zones. Now that Ethereum has broken past resistance, the presence of high liquidity could accelerate its move upward as traders chase momentum. The breakout also holds symbolic weight. It shows that investors are regaining confidence in Ethereum’s value proposition, particularly with the broader altcoin market showing signs of life. If ETH can hold this breakout and establish $3,000 as new support, the next leg higher could materialize quickly, opening the door to targets in the $3,400–$3,600 range. Related Reading: Ethereum Back At Range Highs: Breakout Above $2,800 Could Ignite Altseason ETH Breaks Major Resistance Ethereum (ETH) has decisively broken above the psychological and technical resistance at $3,000, closing its most recent candle at $3,008.97. This breakout follows a strong 15% daily surge, as seen in the chart, marking a powerful move backed by growing bullish momentum. Volume has expanded significantly, confirming trader conviction and institutional participation in this move. The breakout puts an end to nearly two months of sideways action, with ETH previously locked between the $2,500–$2,850 range. The 200-day simple moving average (SMA), currently near $2,796, was breached with strength, acting as a springboard for price acceleration. The reclaim of this moving average adds technical validation to the breakout and signals the beginning of a new bullish leg. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Action Signals Momentum Shift: BTC Sleeps And ETH Moves ETH is now in a key zone for potential continuation. As long as bulls defend the $2,850–$2,900 level as support, Ethereum has room to rally toward $3,400 and beyond. With Bitcoin trading at all-time highs and macro conditions turning favorable for risk assets, ETH could lead the next wave of altcoin expansion. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum has bounced back sharply, reclaiming the $2,400 level after a volatile week marked by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Last weekend, ETH briefly dipped below the $2,200 mark as panic selling swept across global markets following US attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities. The sell-off triggered a sharp fakeout that briefly pushed ETH out of its multi-week trading range. However, bulls are regaining control, and Ethereum’s price action now signals the early stages of a potential recovery rally. Related Reading: Ethereum Gears Up For Breakout Above $2,800 – Bullish Momentum Builds Top analyst Ted Pillows shared a technical analysis highlighting that Ethereum is reclaiming the key $2,444 resistance level — a zone that previously acted as both support and resistance throughout May and June. If bulls maintain momentum above this threshold, it could open the door for a bullish continuation toward the higher end of the established range. While uncertainty remains due to lingering macroeconomic and geopolitical risks, Ethereum’s current structure shows renewed strength. Market participants are watching closely, as ETH often serves as a leading indicator for broader altcoin performance. Holding above $2,400 could become a catalyst for a broader rally, especially if Bitcoin continues to stabilize and approach new all-time highs. Ethereum Battles For Breakout As Market Awaits Direction Ethereum is trading at a critical juncture after a turbulent week of price action driven by geopolitical instability and macroeconomic uncertainty. Following a sharp drop below $2,200 amid panic selling over the Middle East conflict escalation, ETH has recovered significantly, now hovering around the $2,444 level. This price zone is key, not only as a technical resistance but also as a sentiment marker for traders watching for signs of a trend reversal or confirmation of a deeper pullback. Analysts remain divided on what comes next. Some believe Ethereum’s recent recovery could signal the beginning of a bullish continuation, especially if price action holds and pushes above the upper range levels near $2,600. A breakout from this zone would indicate renewed strength and could set the tone for a broader altcoin rally, particularly as Ethereum often leads sector momentum. Others, however, warn that the recovery might be short-lived, and a retreat to lower demand zones could occur if macro conditions worsen. Ted Pillows notes that Ethereum is currently reclaiming the $2,444 resistance level. He emphasizes that bullish continuation into the range highs is necessary to confirm breakout strength. Until then, traders are watching closely, as any rejection at this level could shift momentum back to the downside. With global tensions and monetary tightening from central banks continuing to influence markets, the coming weeks may determine whether ETH enters a new uptrend or retreats further into its long-standing consolidation range. Related Reading: Chainlink Reclaims Key Structure – Quiet Accumulation Could Fuel $25–$30 Surge ETH Faces Long-Term Resistance The weekly chart of Ethereum (ETH/USD) shows a strong recovery from the $2,189 low, with ETH currently trading at $2,463 — a 10.5% gain so far this week. This sharp bounce comes after a fakeout below the $2,200 level and suggests renewed buying pressure following recent geopolitical volatility. However, price is now testing a major confluence zone formed by the 50-week ($2,660), 100-week ($2,625), and 200-week ($2,437) simple moving averages. This cluster of moving averages is acting as resistance, capping ETH’s upside momentum. Historically, when Ethereum breaks through these long-term trend lines, a significant trend continuation follows. But for now, bulls must decisively clear this $2,450–$2,660 zone to confirm a breakout and open the door toward the $3,000 psychological level. Related Reading: Bitcoin Buy-Side Pressure Surges: Taker Buy Volume Spikes Sharply Volume has slightly increased, indicating rising interest, but the rejection wicks from prior weekly candles suggest the market remains indecisive. As long as ETH holds above the 200-week SMA ($2,437), the structure remains constructive, but a breakdown below it would likely reintroduce bearish sentiment.

Ethereum has experienced a strong comeback after weeks of uncertainty and bearish momentum. Following a sharp breakdown below its long-standing consolidation range, ETH found support near the $2,100 level and has since surged 15% from Sunday’s low. The move comes amid improving market sentiment after a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran helped ease geopolitical tensions, while broader macroeconomic conditions remain in flux. Related Reading: Bitcoin Buy-Side Pressure Surges: Taker Buy Volume Spikes Sharply This recent bounce has placed Ethereum back into a critical technical zone, where bulls are once again attempting to reclaim control. After spending much of May and June in a sideways range, ETH is showing signs of renewed strength, fueling optimism that the next decisive move could be to the upside. Top analyst Mister Crypto shared a bullish technical outlook, highlighting that Ethereum is getting ready for a breakout. According to his view, the current price structure and momentum suggest ETH may be preparing to challenge previous resistance levels and enter a new phase of expansion. With on-chain activity starting to pick up and broader market confidence slowly returning, Ethereum could be positioning itself as the key altcoin to lead a potential rally in the coming weeks. Ethereum Reclaims Strength Ethereum has surged more than 15% from Sunday’s lows, recovering from sharp losses triggered by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. The announcement of a ceasefire between Israel and Iran sent a wave of relief through global markets, with ETH leading the charge among major altcoins. After briefly losing key support levels, bulls are regaining momentum as Ethereum reclaims price levels last seen before the breakdown. This rebound marks a crucial moment for ETH, as it tests the strength of current market sentiment. While macroeconomic uncertainty continues—driven by growing fears of a U.S. recession, rising bond yields, and a cautious Federal Reserve—Ethereum appears to be consolidating for a potential breakout. The broader crypto market remains on edge, with altcoins underperforming Bitcoin, and many investors watching Ethereum closely as the likely catalyst for the long-awaited altseason. According to Mister Crypto, Ethereum is now preparing for a breakout above the $2,800 resistance. This level represents a major psychological and structural barrier, and a decisive move beyond it could redefine ETH’s trajectory for the remainder of the year. Volume is returning, and on-chain data shows rising confidence from long-term holders, signaling a potential shift in trend. If bulls succeed in pushing ETH past this zone, it could trigger renewed interest across the altcoin market and usher in a wave of fresh capital. As Ethereum flirts with this breakout level, its price action in the coming days may very well set the tone for the next phase of the crypto cycle. Related Reading: Ethereum Whale Loads Up: $422M In ETH Bought In Under a Month ETH Testing Resistance After 15% Surge Ethereum (ETH) is currently trading near $2,414 after rebounding sharply from the $2,100 zone, a level revisited last Sunday during heightened geopolitical tensions. The 8-hour chart shows a clean V-shaped recovery, with bulls pushing the price through the 200 SMA ($2,326), reclaiming short-term control. Volume surged on the way up, confirming strong buying interest during the bounce. However, ETH now faces a test near the $2,450–$2,500 zone, where the 50 and 100 SMAs converge. These moving averages, currently acting as resistance, previously played a key role during Ethereum’s consolidation in early June. A successful breakout above this range would open the door to a retest of the $2,700–$2,800 levels, as suggested by top analysts like Mister Crypto. Related Reading: Bitcoin Battles Key Support: Daily EMA-100 Must Hold to Prevent Deep Correction For now, price action remains in a neutral consolidation range with a slight bullish tilt. If Ethereum holds above the 200 SMA while building support above $2,400, the bullish case strengthens. However, failure to break above $2,500 could trigger another pullback toward the $2,300 level. The next few sessions will be crucial to determine whether ETH continues its breakout attempt or enters another phase of sideways consolidation amid broader market uncertainty.

Ethereum is approaching a critical test as price action tightens, setting the stage for a decisive move above key demand. After weeks of volatile yet controlled trading, bulls are attempting to reclaim higher ground, but momentum remains limited. At the same time, bears have repeatedly failed to drive ETH below the $2,400 level, reinforcing it as a strong support zone for now. With global markets under pressure from geopolitical tensions and macro uncertainty, Ethereum’s next move could define the direction of the broader altcoin market. Related Reading: Ethereum Analyst Eyes High Timeframe Close – Range Break Above $2,800 Could Be Violent Top analyst M-log1 believes the ETH/BTC pair is the most important chart to monitor in the coming days. According to his view, a breakout—either to the upside or downside—will determine the fate of altcoins across the board. The setup has reached an inflection point after multiple tests of the lower support band, with bulls continuing to defend it against breakdown attempts. This consolidation phase, combined with suppressed volatility and rising macro tension, makes Ethereum’s current structure one of the most significant technical formations in crypto right now. All eyes are now on ETH/BTC as traders prepare for what could be a defining moment in the altcoin cycle. Ethereum Builds Pressure As Breakout Nears Ethereum continues to trade within a narrow range that began in early May, hovering between the $2,400 and $2,800 levels. This prolonged consolidation comes at a time of growing geopolitical instability, as the conflict in the Middle East escalates and macroeconomic uncertainty grips global markets. While many investors had anticipated an altseason by now, that rotation of capital into altcoins has yet to materialize. All eyes remain on Ethereum to serve as the catalyst for that next leg higher. M-log1 believes the ETH/BTC pair holds the most important signal in the coming days. “This is probably the most important chart you want to keep an eye on,” he stated, highlighting that whichever direction ETH/BTC breaks could determine the fate of the altcoin market. The chart has repeatedly tested the lower support range, with bulls successfully defending that level on at least eight occasions. According to M-log1, this persistent defense suggests that bears are losing momentum, and a breakout to the upside is more likely. “I am 80/20 in favor of the upside,” he said, citing the market’s inability to break lower as a sign of underlying strength. Related Reading: Ethereum Mirrors Bitcoin 2017-2021 Pattern – $4,000 Is The Trigger Point ETH Tests Weekly Moving Averages Ethereum (ETH) is currently trading at $2,550, maintaining its position above all major weekly moving averages—50, 100, and 200. This level marks a key technical pivot as price consolidates between $2,450 and $2,680 after a strong recovery from its April low near $1,500. Despite multiple attempts to break higher, ETH continues to face resistance just below the $2,700 mark, showing that sellers remain active near historical supply zones. Importantly, the recent weekly candles have held the 100-week and 200-week simple moving averages as support. This indicates structural strength, especially considering the broader macro uncertainty driven by Middle East tensions and tighter U.S. monetary policy. Volume remains steady, with no signs of panic selling, further supporting the idea that ETH is stabilizing. Related Reading: Bitcoin Consolidates as Realized Profits Stay Low – No Signs Of Major Sell-Off Yet The current compression in price around key moving averages typically precedes a larger directional move. A confirmed weekly close above $2,700 could open the door to a rapid push toward the psychological $3,000 level. Conversely, losing the $2,400 support would likely trigger a short-term correction back toward the 50-week SMA near $2,289. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum is currently facing a pivotal moment as it continues to consolidate below the $3,000 level. Bulls are targeting a breakout above this key resistance zone, which could trigger a major upward move. However, broader market conditions remain fragile. Geopolitical tensions—particularly the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran—continue to create a high-risk macroeconomic environment, leading to increased volatility and intermittent selling pressure across risk assets. Related Reading: Tron Shows Real Growth: Transaction Volume Soars While Success Rate Stays Above 96% Despite these challenges, ETH has shown resilience by holding above the $2,500 support zone. The price has remained locked in a narrow trading range for weeks, reflecting market indecision and caution among participants. According to a technical analysis shared by top analyst Daan, Ethereum continues to trade within this very tight range, with price wicks on both sides consistently getting absorbed. This type of price action signals growing compression, often a precursor to a strong directional move once one side gives in. Traders are now closely monitoring the structure for a higher timeframe close above $2,800, which could validate bullish momentum and open the path toward $3,000 and beyond. Until then, the market appears balanced, and any shift in geopolitical developments may quickly tilt sentiment in either direction. Ethereum Prepares For Breakout as Market Awaits Confirmation Ethereum remains over 60% below its 2024 high of $4,100, but the asset is showing signs of recovery after months of downward pressure and indecision. Bulls have struggled to regain control throughout the year, but recent price action indicates the start of a potential rally. This recovery, however, remains tentative and will require confirmation through a higher timeframe close above critical resistance levels, particularly the $2,800–$3,000 range. The broader environment continues to weigh heavily on sentiment. Escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, coupled with macroeconomic uncertainty—including rising U.S. Treasury yields and concerns about inflation—are creating headwinds for risk assets, Ethereum included. Despite this, ETH has managed to hold key support above the $2,500 level, a sign that bulls are defending their ground. According to technical analysis shared by analyst Daan, Ethereum is currently trading within a very tight range, with price wicks on both sides being consistently absorbed. This type of compression typically signals an incoming surge in volatility. Daan notes that once one side gives in, the resulting move often becomes explosive and sustained. The current range-bound action reflects equilibrium between buyers and sellers, but that balance won’t last forever. Traders are watching closely for a decisive higher timeframe close above resistance—or below support—as confirmation of the next trend direction. With ETH positioned near major technical zones, a breakout could lead to significant momentum, potentially bringing Ethereum closer to reclaiming the psychological $3,000 mark and reigniting a push toward cycle highs. Until then, the market remains in a wait-and-see mode. Related Reading: Bitcoin Consolidates as Realized Profits Stay Low – No Signs Of Major Sell-Off Yet Ethereum Continues Range-Bound Trading As Key Support Holds Ethereum (ETH) remains locked in a tight range between approximately $2,500 and $2,800, showing little directional clarity over the past several weeks. The chart above (12-hour timeframe) reflects persistent consolidation with multiple wicks on both ends of the candles, indicating absorption of both bullish and bearish momentum. This suggests that neither buyers nor sellers have taken firm control. ETH currently trades near $2,540 and is holding above the 100-period simple moving average (SMA), which is acting as short-term support. The 50 SMA has flattened, further reinforcing the sideways nature of the price action. Volume has also tapered off, typical in compression phases that often precede strong breakouts or breakdowns. If ETH fails to reclaim the $2,675–$2,800 resistance zone, the 200 SMA near $2,117 may become relevant as a deeper support target. However, as long as ETH maintains price action above $2,500, bulls are still in play.

A higher timeframe close above $2,800 could trigger a new leg up toward $3,000 and beyond. Conversely, a break below $2,500 could lead to renewed bearish pressure. For now, traders are watching for breakout confirmation. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum has remained in a volatile consolidation phase, trading between the $2,400 and $2,800 levels as geopolitical tensions weigh heavily on global markets. After last week’s failed breakout above resistance, ETH has retraced yet again, struggling to build sustained momentum. The ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran has intensified market uncertainty, contributing to spikes in volatility across risk assets, including cryptocurrencies. Related Reading: Ethereum Weekly Candle Hints At Pre-Tower Top Formation – Details Despite the macro headwinds, Ethereum bulls continue to defend key support levels, preventing a deeper breakdown. The $2,400 zone has acted as a strong floor in recent weeks, absorbing sell pressure and keeping ETH within its current trading range. Meanwhile, the $2,800 resistance remains the major hurdle to reclaim for a bullish breakout scenario. Top analyst Jelle shared a technical outlook suggesting that Ethereum is still consolidating below a key resistance area. This structure indicates that ETH is coiling before its next major move. The window for a potential breakout narrows as price tightens within this established range. Ethereum Prepares To Move Ethereum has pushed into a critical price zone, with bulls attempting to hold the $2,600–$2,700 range after recent volatility. The asset has shown resilience, rebounding from last week’s lows and re-entering the mid-range of its multi-week consolidation. With price action once again approaching the $2,800 resistance level, market participants are eyeing a potential breakout that could open the door to $3,000 and beyond. Analysts remain divided. On one side, bullish momentum and improving market sentiment suggest ETH is preparing for a larger move. A confirmed breakout above $2,800 would likely trigger aggressive buying and initiate a broader altcoin rally. Many investors are positioning themselves in anticipation of a rotation from Bitcoin into high-beta assets like Ethereum, hoping to ride the next phase of the cycle. On the other side, caution persists. Some technical analysts argue that Ethereum may still be at risk of losing steam, especially if the price gets rejected again at resistance. A failure to maintain the current range could result in a retracement toward $2,400 support or even lower, shaking out weak hands. According to a recent technical update from Jelle, Ethereum remains locked in consolidation just below its key resistance zone. The analysis points to a tightening structure where the window of opportunity is closing. If ETH breaks above this zone, it could ignite fireworks across the altcoin market. With global uncertainty still present and traders closely watching resistance levels, Ethereum’s next move could define the pace of the broader market. Whether it’s a breakout or a breakdown, the coming days are likely to be pivotal. Related Reading: Bitcoin Tests Critical $104K Support – Eyes On $97K If It Breaks ETH Price Action: Technical Details Ethereum is currently trading at $2,606, maintaining a tight consolidation range between $2,400 and $2,800 as shown in the 12-hour chart. After multiple rejections around the $2,800 zone, the asset is struggling to break through this resistance level decisively. Despite the volatility triggered by macroeconomic uncertainty and Middle East conflict, ETH has managed to defend the $2,500 area, supported by a rising 100-period moving average. The recent bounce from the lower end of the range suggests that bulls are still active, stepping in to defend critical structure. However, volume remains relatively muted, indicating that buyers are cautious and awaiting confirmation before initiating larger positions. Meanwhile, the 50-period moving average remains above the 200-period MA, hinting at a medium-term bullish bias if support continues to hold.

If the range breaks to the downside, the $2,400 zone is the next level to watch for demand. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum is holding strong despite a week filled with extreme volatility and heightened geopolitical tensions. Following escalations in the Middle East, with conflict between Israel and Iran fueling global market uncertainty, ETH managed to maintain its critical price range. After briefly dipping earlier in the week, Ethereum has reclaimed momentum and is now trading around crucial levels that could define the next move for the broader altcoin market. Related Reading: Ethereum Weekly Candle Hints At Pre-Tower Top Formation – Details Top analyst Ted Pillows shared a technical outlook suggesting that the bullish scenario remains intact for Ethereum. According to his analysis, ETH is successfully holding its range structure, a key signal that buyers are still in control. This stability at current levels offers confidence to investors watching for a breakout that could lead to a broader altcoin rally. With the macro backdrop still fragile due to rising US Treasury yields and global conflict, Ethereum’s ability to sustain its structure is a sign of relative strength. While the path ahead remains uncertain, all eyes are now on Ethereum’s ability to hold these levels and break through resistance zones. If it does, it could be the trigger needed for renewed momentum in the altcoin market. Ethereum Holds the Line as Bulls Target Breakout Ethereum has gained over 7% since last Friday, recovering from recent lows triggered by macroeconomic pressures and geopolitical instability. The bounce reignited optimism across the market, but price action continues to face a tough challenge at key resistance levels. ETH briefly broke above the $2,800 mark last week, a level that many analysts viewed as a gateway to a broader rally. However, the move lacked follow-through, and Ethereum quickly slipped back below that level, suggesting a lack of conviction or the presence of heavy overhead supply. This divergence in momentum has split analyst opinion. Some argue that Ethereum’s breakout could still ignite a new altcoin season, with ETH leading the charge. Others caution that the repeated failure to sustain higher levels might indicate weakness, and warn that a breakdown below the current range could send Ethereum toward the $2,500 zone or lower. Still, Ted Pillows believes the overall structure remains bullish. His latest analysis emphasizes that the scenario is unchanged: as long as ETH holds the range low as support, the market remains intact and poised to move higher. This support zone has repeatedly acted as a floor for ETH since early May. Ultimately, the next move will be decisive. Ethereum’s ability to hold the range and reclaim $2,800 could pave the way toward $3,000 and beyond. But failure to defend support may increase selling pressure and shift market sentiment. For now, the battle between bulls and bears continues, with Ethereum’s structure offering hope to those betting on an upside breakout. Related Reading: Bitcoin Tests Critical $104K Support – Eyes On $97K If It Breaks ETH Price Analysis: Key Levels To Watch Ethereum (ETH) continues to trade within a defined range after another failed attempt to break above the $2,800 resistance. According to the chart, ETH is currently priced at $2,626.98, down 0.09% on the 4-hour timeframe. Price action shows strong wicks near the resistance zone, suggesting rejection at the upper boundary around $2,770–$2,800, while buyers stepped in as soon as ETH approached the confluence of the 50, 100, and 200 moving averages between $2,576 and $2,619. This range, which has been developing since early May, remains intact. The chart highlights that ETH has respected the $2,580–$2,620 zone as support, confirming this as the lower bound of the range. As long as ETH holds above this level, bulls are likely to remain in control. However, a failure to reclaim the resistance zone with conviction could lead to another pullback.

Volume has slightly picked up near support, signaling buyer interest, but the lack of follow-through near the highs keeps ETH stuck within its range.

On-chain data shows Ethereum has just witnessed its largest daily withdrawal in over a month, a sign that may turn out to be bullish for the asset’s price. Ethereum Has Recently Seen Notable Exchange Outflows As explained by the institutional DeFi solutions provider Sentora (formerly IntoTheBlock) in a new post on X, a large amount of Ethereum has left exchanges. The on-chain indicator of interest here is the “Exchange Netflow,” which measures the net amount of ETH entering into or exiting out of the wallets associated with centralized exchanges. When the value of this metric is positive, it means the exchanges are receiving a net number of deposits. As one of the main reasons why investors deposit their tokens to these platforms is for selling-related purposes, this kind of trend can have a bearish implication for the ETH price. Related Reading: Tron Has Plenty Of Room For A 2025 Bull Run, Risk Metric Signals On the other hand, the indicator being below zero suggests the exchange outflows outweigh the inflows. Such a trend can imply the holders are accumulating, which can naturally have a bullish effect on the asset. Now, here is the chart shared by Sentora that shows the trend in the Ethereum Exchange Netflow over the past month: As displayed in the above graph, the Ethereum Exchange Netflow has seen a sharp negative spike during the past day, which suggests the investors have withdrawn a significant amount of the cryptocurrency. In total, the exchanges have handled net outflows of more than 140,000 ETH (worth about $390 million) with this withdrawal spree. This is the largest single-day exit that these platforms have faced in over a month. These outflows have come as Ethereum has been attempting a breakout from its month-long range. As such, it’s possible that a portion of the large holders of the market have some level of confidence in this rally. In some other news, the cash-margined Ethereum Futures Open Interest has set a new all-time high, as the on-chain analytics firm Glassnode has revealed in an X post. The Futures Open Interest is an indicator that measures the total amount of positions related to Ethereum that are currently open on all derivatives platforms. Here, the ‘cash-margined’ Open Interest is of relevance, which includes all the contracts that have fiat/stablecoins as collateral.

Ethereum is showing resilience amid the recent wave of market volatility and uncertainty. While the broader crypto market has pulled back over the past few weeks, ETH continues to hold firm above the $2,500 level — a key psychological and technical support zone. This strength has caught the attention of traders and analysts who see Ethereum’s current price action as a potential launchpad for a move into higher territory. Related Reading: Solana Key Indicator Flashes Buy Signal On Daily Chart – Rally Ahead? Despite the retracement across major altcoins, Ethereum remains structurally intact, with bulls defending the lower boundary of its current range. The lack of panic-selling at these levels suggests growing confidence in ETH’s long-term trajectory, even as macroeconomic pressures — including tighter liquidity and geopolitical uncertainty — continue to weigh on sentiment. Top analyst Ted Pillows recently shared a technical update highlighting that ETH is still trading within a well-defined range. According to his view, Ethereum’s ability to consolidate without losing critical support is a sign of underlying strength. A breakout above the range high could trigger renewed momentum toward the $2,800–$3,000 region, while a breakdown below $2,500 would invalidate the current setup. Ethereum Approaches Pivotal Zone Amid Uncertainty The crypto market has been navigating a volatile environment, and Ethereum is no exception. However, despite the turbulence, ETH has managed to maintain its footing above $2,500 — a key support level that continues to act as a buffer against deeper downside. With Bitcoin holding strong and altcoins preparing for potential breakout moves, the coming weeks could be decisive for Ethereum’s next major trend. ETH currently trades 48% below its all-time high, but price action suggests that bulls are building momentum. Ethereum has absorbed recent volatility well, even as broader market sentiment remains shaken by rising geopolitical tensions, most notably, the growing conflict between Elon Musk and US President Donald Trump. While these headlines have added uncertainty, Ethereum’s ability to stay range-bound reflects growing confidence among investors. Pillows notes that Ethereum is still trading within a well-defined range, and the structure remains intact. According to his analysis, reclaiming the $2,800 level would be a key breakout trigger, potentially opening the door for a fast rally to $4,000. Until then, ETH remains in consolidation mode — but with Bitcoin showing leadership and the market entering a pivotal phase, Ethereum could be on the verge of catching up. If bulls can maintain control and push through resistance, ETH could finally break out of its range and reenter a bullish price discovery phase. But if resistance holds, traders may see another leg of consolidation. Either way, Ethereum is entering a key window where market direction will likely be defined, and how ETH behaves around the $2,800 mark could determine the altcoin outlook for the rest of the summer. Related Reading: Ethereum Stabilizes After Market Drop – Key MA Reclaim Could Trigger A June Rally ETH Weekly Chart Shows Momentum Building Near Resistance Ethereum is holding steady near $2,500 as seen on the weekly chart, showing promising signs of strength despite recent market-wide volatility. After bouncing sharply from sub-$1,800 levels in May, ETH is now consolidating just below the $2,707 resistance — the 50-week simple moving average (SMA). This level coincides with the upper boundary of the current range and remains the key line bulls need to reclaim to unlock further upside. ETH is currently trading above its 34-week EMA ($2,501) and the 200-week SMA ($2,450), both of which are acting as dynamic support. Holding these levels reinforces the idea that buyers are stepping in on dips, providing a strong base for potential continuation. However, the price is still capped by the 100-week SMA at $2,610, making the $2,700–$2,800 region a critical resistance zone. Related Reading: Ethereum Holds Key Range Support After Pullback – Bulls Eye $3,000 Level A weekly close above this cluster of moving averages could trigger a breakout and pave the way toward $3,000 and beyond.

Ethereum has faced a sharp pullback, dropping over 10% in the last 24 hours as global tensions and macroeconomic uncertainty shake investor confidence across markets. The retrace comes amid rising US bond yields and escalating trade conflict rhetoric between major global powers, particularly the United States and China. While Bitcoin holds strong above key support levels, altcoins—including Ethereum—are under pressure, prompting caution among short-term traders. Related Reading: Bitcoin Sees Largest Net Taker Volume Drop Of 2025 – Traders React To Trump-Elon Clash However, some analysts believe this dip could present an opportunity rather than a threat. Top analyst Ted Pillows shared technical insights suggesting that Ethereum is holding range support well, even after the sharp decline. According to Pillows, ETH’s ability to stay above critical support zones is a positive sign, with a potential breakout toward higher levels if it manages to reclaim momentum within the range. The coming weeks will likely be decisive for Ethereum and the broader altcoin market. If market volatility calms and Bitcoin continues to consolidate above $100K, Ethereum could lead the next leg up, opening the door for a strong altseason. For now, traders are closely watching how ETH behaves around its current support to determine whether a deeper correction or a bullish reversal is in play. Ethereum Holds Range Support Amid Market Volatility Ethereum is showing resilience despite heightened macro uncertainty and political tensions between Elon Musk and US President Donald Trump. Following a sharp pullback, ETH has managed to defend key support levels, with bulls stepping in near the $2,400 zone. This recovery comes at a time when the crypto market is on edge, reacting to broader financial market volatility and shifting sentiment across global assets. ETH remains approximately 48% below its all-time high, leaving substantial upside potential if momentum continues to build. The coming weeks will be decisive, especially as Bitcoin consolidates above $100,000 and traders look to Ethereum and altcoins for the next leg higher. Despite global headwinds, including inflation and escalating trade tensions, Ethereum is maintaining strength within its current range. Pillows emphasized in a recent analysis that Ethereum is holding range support nicely after the dump. According to his view, reclaiming this range is a key signal that bulls remain in control. If ETH can break through near-term resistance levels and reclaim the $2,600 mark, it opens the door for a push toward $3,000 — a psychological and technical milestone. Related Reading: Ethereum Stabilizes After Market Drop – Key MA Reclaim Could Trigger A June Rally ETH Rebounds As Consolidation Continues Ethereum (ETH) is currently trading around $2,466, holding just above the 34-day EMA at $2,422 after a volatile week. As seen on the daily chart, ETH remains inside a consolidation range between $2,400 and $2,700. Despite recent pressure across altcoins, ETH has managed to avoid a breakdown and is attempting to stabilize above the 50-day and 100-day moving averages. The chart shows that ETH’s recent pullback stopped just before the 100-day SMA (~$2,068), a level that has acted as a strong dynamic support in past cycles. Holding this structure is critical for the bullish outlook to remain intact. If bulls can push the price back above the 200-day SMA at $2,666, Ethereum could attempt a breakout above $2,700 — a move that would likely open the door to $3,000 and signal renewed strength in the broader altcoin market. Related Reading: Solana Horizontal Support Under Pressure – Bearish Target At $142 Volume has remained moderate, suggesting traders are waiting for confirmation before entering new positions. As long as ETH holds above the $2,400–$2,450 region, the bullish thesis remains valid.

Ethereum is showing impressive resilience as it continues to hold above critical levels despite ongoing market volatility. While Bitcoin struggles to break past its all-time highs, ETH remains stable, maintaining bullish structure and fueling hopes for a broader altcoin rally. Analysts across the market are eyeing a potential altseason, with Ethereum expected to lead the charge once it clears major supply zones. Related Reading: Ethereum Daily Chart Signals Strength Amid Market Uncertainty – Analyst However, the spotlight is shifting to a less discussed but highly significant chart—ETHBTC. According to top analyst Daan, the ETHBTC pair has been consolidating in a tight range between 0.022 and 0.026 since the last squeeze. This consolidation suggests a period of accumulation and reduced volatility, but it also acts as a crucial signal for altcoin momentum. If ETHBTC breaks above the 0.026 resistance level, Daan suggests it could trigger a temporary but powerful rally in ALT/BTC pairs. Sectors closely tied to Ethereum—such as DeFi protocols, ETH-based memecoins, and Layer 2 ecosystems—could benefit most from such a move. Until then, investors are closely monitoring ETH’s performance relative to BTC, as it remains one of the most reliable indicators of capital rotation within the crypto market. ETHBTC Chart Becomes Key to Altseason Outlook Ethereum is currently trading at a pivotal range, with investors closely watching for a breakout that could lead to new highs and potentially ignite the long-anticipated altseason. Despite global tensions and continued macroeconomic uncertainty—particularly surrounding the aggressive and unstable Bond market—ETH has remained relatively strong. Bulls are optimistic, viewing the current consolidation as a healthy pause before the next leg up. One of the most important signals for altcoin momentum is not found on the USD chart, but in the ETHBTC pair. Daan points out that Ethereum’s price relative to Bitcoin has been consolidating between the 0.022 and 0.026 BTC range since the recent squeeze. This range now acts as a pressure point for the market. A breakout above 0.026 would likely catalyze a surge in altcoin strength, especially among Ethereum-related assets like DeFi protocols, ETH-based memecoins, and Layer 2 solutions. However, Daan warns that if ETHBTC drops below 0.0224, it could signal weakness for alts relative to BTC. It’s important to remember that ALT/BTC pairs can fall even if altcoin USD prices rise, particularly during aggressive BTC rallies. The same applies in reverse. For now, ETH’s position in this range remains one of the most telling signs of where the broader crypto market might head next. Related Reading: Ethereum Reclaims Pivotal Level – Key Resistance Around $2,650 Ethereum Faces Resistance As Bulls Attempt Breakout Ethereum (ETH) is currently trading around $2,640, showing signs of strength after holding its ground above the $2,500 mark. On the daily chart, ETH is forming a clear consolidation pattern just below a key resistance zone defined by the 200-day moving average (currently at $2,676). This level has repeatedly capped price action over the past few weeks, signaling strong supply pressure in this area. Despite the lack of a decisive breakout, Ethereum is maintaining a bullish structure with higher lows and consistent volume support. The 34-day EMA has turned upward and currently sits at $2,418, providing dynamic support and reinforcing the short-term uptrend. If ETH can reclaim the 200-day SMA and push above $2,700, a broader rally could follow, potentially opening the path toward $3,000 and beyond. Related Reading: Solana Reclaims Key Support After Sweeping Lows – Early Signs Of Reversal? On the downside, if price fails to break this resistance and sellers take control, immediate support lies near $2,500, followed by stronger demand around $2,350–$2,400 where the 50- and 100-day SMAs converge. For now, Ethereum remains in a balanced state, showing resilience, but still needs a strong catalyst to overcome the technical ceiling that continues to stall upward momentum. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum continues to demonstrate strength, holding firm above key support levels and outperforming much of the crypto market despite growing macroeconomic uncertainty. Since its April lows, ETH has more than doubled in value, gaining over 100%, and shows no signs of slowing down. While many assets have faced heavy selling pressure amid volatility in global markets, Ethereum remains resilient, showing consistent buying interest and maintaining its upward trajectory. Related Reading: Ethereum Poised For A 5-Figure Breakout – Volatility Is Shaking ‘Weak Hands’ Top analyst Carl Runefelt shared a bullish perspective, noting that Ethereum price stays strong on the daily timeframe. According to Runefelt, if Bitcoin starts moving sideways, Ethereum could seize the opportunity to break out of its current consolidation triangle and lead the next phase of the market rally. His analysis highlights the unique positioning ETH holds at the moment—not only as the second-largest cryptocurrency but also as a potential driver of the next altseason. With ETH holding above $2,600 and approaching key resistance zones, market participants are watching closely. A decisive breakout could ignite widespread momentum across altcoins and mark the beginning of a new phase in the current bull cycle. Ethereum’s performance continues to solidify its role as the foundation of the broader digital asset space. Ethereum At A Pivotal Range: Bulls Eye Breakout Ethereum is currently trading within a tight consolidation range that many investors view as the staging ground for its next major move. After a significant rally that saw ETH gain over 100% since April, the asset is now testing key resistance levels, particularly around $2,650–$2,700. Despite recent macroeconomic tensions, including rising US Treasury yields and persistent geopolitical risks, Ethereum continues to show strength, with bulls holding the line above critical support. Runefelt recently emphasized that Ethereum “refuses to dump on the daily timeframe,” a signal of underlying bullish resilience. His analysis suggests that if Bitcoin begins to move sideways, Ethereum could break out of its consolidation triangle to the upside, potentially sparking the beginning of a long-awaited altseason. From a technical perspective, the consolidation appears constructive. The price has formed higher lows since April and remains above all major moving averages on key timeframes. The $2,300 level is emerging as a strong base, while the bullish target sits at $3,100 if resistance is cleared. Related Reading: Ethereum Supply On Exchanges Hits 7-Year Low – Breakout Loading? Runefelt’s bullish and bearish scenarios—$3,100 on the upside and $2,300 on the downside—underline the importance of the current range. As trading volume compresses and volatility brews, Ethereum looks ready for a decisive move. Should the breakout occur, it could not only lead ETH to new cycle highs but also ignite broader confidence across the altcoin market. ETH Price Analysis – Daily Chart Overview Ethereum (ETH) is currently trading at $2,616, hovering just below the 200-day simple moving average (SMA), which sits around $2,679. This level has acted as a consistent resistance zone over the past few weeks, with ETH failing to close decisively above it. Despite several intraday moves above $2,650, the price has yet to confirm a breakout. Looking at the broader structure, ETH remains in a consolidation range between $2,480 and $2,700 after posting an impressive rally from its April lows near $1,800. The 34-day EMA ($2,406) and the cluster of shorter-term SMAs are trending upwards, indicating that medium-term momentum still favors the bulls. Related Reading: Ethereum Pulls Back 10% But Holds Monthly Gains – Is The Next Pump Loading? Volume has been relatively stable but unremarkable, suggesting a lack of strong conviction from either side. A clean daily close above $2,700 could confirm a breakout and potentially open the door for a move toward $3,000. On the downside, if ETH fails to hold the $2,480 support zone, we could see a pullback to retest the 100-day SMA near $2,065. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum is trading just below the $2,500 mark, struggling to reclaim higher ground as bearish momentum picks up across the broader crypto market. After repeated failed attempts to break past resistance, ETH now sits under heavy selling pressure, raising concerns about a deeper correction. Bulls appear to be losing control as overall market sentiment weakens amid global economic uncertainty and the persistent weight of rising US Treasury yields. Some market participants are now bracing for a significant downturn if Ethereum fails to hold above key demand zones. Related Reading: Solana Reclaims Key Support After Sweeping Lows – Early Signs Of Reversal? However, not everyone is turning bearish. Some prominent analysts maintain a highly bullish long-term view, arguing that Ethereum still has significant upside this cycle. According to Ted Pillows, Ethereum could reach $10,000 before the cycle ends. From his perspective, current price action represents a temporary dip rather than a trend reversal, and accumulating during weakness is the smarter move for long-term investors. While short-term uncertainty dominates headlines, long-term conviction remains strong among Ethereum supporters who point to rising institutional interest, declining exchange supply, and the overall maturing of the Ethereum ecosystem as reasons to stay optimistic. For now, ETH’s position just under $2,500 sets the stage for a critical test in the days ahead. Ethereum Analysts Eye Breakout Potential Ethereum is currently testing a crucial support level at $2,500 after repeatedly reaching the $2,700 resistance over the past few weeks. This zone has proven difficult to break, but bulls are still holding the line. If ETH manages to reclaim the upper range and close above it, analysts believe it could ignite the altseason the market has been waiting for. Despite Ethereum’s underperformance over the past year, marked by a lack of sustained momentum and significant selling pressure, the recent price action suggests a shift. Over the past few weeks, ETH has entered a more bullish phase, supported by increasing on-chain activity and stronger demand. Some analysts remain firmly bullish. Ted Pillows, for example, has projected that Ethereum is headed above $10,000 this cycle. While short-term volatility may cause concern, long-term conviction remains strong. For many investors, the message is clear: embrace the dips, accumulate strategically, and avoid panic selling. Technical sentiment across the board is turning cautiously optimistic. Market watchers point to Ethereum’s resilience at the $2,500 level as a sign of building strength. If this support holds and bulls step in with volume, the breakout above $2,700 could be swift and aggressive. Related Reading: Ethereum Pulls Back 10% But Holds Monthly Gains – Is The Next Pump Loading? ETH Tests Key Support As Bulls Defend $2,500 Ethereum is currently trading around $2,488 after a 2% daily drop, showing continued weakness below the crucial $2,700 resistance zone. The chart highlights a clear consolidation range forming since early May, with ETH repeatedly failing to close above the 200-day SMA, currently around $2,680. This long-term moving average is acting as a significant barrier, preventing any breakout momentum from gaining traction. Support remains at the lower boundary of the range near $2,470–$2,500, where buyers have consistently stepped in to absorb selling pressure. This area coincides with the 34-day EMA at $2,386 and the 100-day SMA just below current levels, forming a dense cluster of technical support. However, volume has been declining, suggesting that neither bulls nor bears have clear control. If Ethereum loses the $2,470 level decisively, the next key area to watch lies near $2,300, where the 50-day SMA could act as a cushion. Related Reading: Solana Flashes Buy Signal – $159 Support Key For Rebound Conversely, reclaiming $2,700 with strength could signal the beginning of a larger move to the upside. Until then, ETH remains stuck in a range, and traders will be watching closely for a decisive break—up or down to define Ethereum’s next major trend.

Ethereum is holding strong above the $2,500 level, showing resilience as the broader crypto market undergoes a healthy pullback. Despite recent volatility, ETH continues to trade within a bullish structure, fueling optimism that it could lead the next leg of the market’s rally. Analysts are closely watching Ethereum’s price action, calling for a potential breakout that might set the tone for an anticipated altseason. Related Reading: Solana Flashes Buy Signal – $159 Support Key For Rebound Top analyst Ted Pillows shared key insights, noting that Ethereum is down just 10% from its local highs, yet up nearly 50% this month alone. This strong monthly performance is a clear indication that Ethereum remains in an uptrend, even as short-term corrections occur. According to Pillows, this kind of price behavior—holding steady while the market resets—often precedes aggressive moves, particularly if Ethereum can reclaim higher resistance levels in the coming days. With Bitcoin consolidating below its all-time highs and market participants eyeing renewed capital rotation into altcoins, Ethereum is well-positioned to act as a catalyst. A decisive move above $2,700 could validate the bullish outlook and trigger broader momentum across the altcoin market. For now, Ethereum’s relative strength continues to stand out amid market uncertainty. Ethereum Uptrend Holds Firm Despite Global Tensions Ethereum is facing a pivotal test as it continues to trade within a tight range since May 10th, hovering between key support and resistance zones. While macroeconomic uncertainty weighs heavily on traditional markets—driven by rising US Treasury yields and geopolitical tensions—Ethereum has shown impressive resilience. Bulls remain confident that ETH has room to push higher, supported by strong fundamentals and improving investor sentiment. Pillows highlights that despite a recent 10% pullback from local highs, Ethereum is still up nearly 50% this month. This sharp monthly gain clearly indicates that ETH remains in a strong uptrend, even as volatility tests short-term conviction. The fact that ETH has maintained higher lows throughout this range-bound structure reinforces the idea of accumulation, not distribution. Beyond price action, on-chain and institutional signals point toward sustained demand. ETF inflows for Ethereum have begun to pick up, albeit at a slower pace than Bitcoin’s. However, due to Ethereum’s smaller market cap, these flows have a more pronounced impact. Additionally, multiple firms are reportedly raising over $1 billion to acquire ETH, signaling long-term confidence in the asset’s role in the evolving digital economy. Pillows sees the stage set for Ethereum’s next major leg up. If the $2,700–$2,850 resistance zone is broken with conviction, it could trigger a strong rally that positions ETH as a leader in a potential altseason. For now, Ethereum’s steady hand in turbulent times is a bullish signal in itself. Related Reading: Ethereum Bulls Defend Support – Key Indicator Hints At Short-Term Rally Ethereum Weekly Chart Holds Firm Ethereum is showing resilience on the weekly chart, trading at $2,509 after reaching a high of $2,789 earlier in the week. While the price has pulled back slightly, it remains firmly above the 200-week SMA ($2,452) and the 34-week EMA ($2,498), which is a strong sign of underlying bullish structure. This area is now acting as solid support after ETH’s 50% rally off the April lows. What’s technically notable is that ETH is challenging the underside of the 100-week and 50-week SMAs, both of which have previously acted as resistance throughout this cycle. A close above $2,725 would mark a significant shift in trend, confirming bullish continuation and opening the door for a test of the $3,000–$3,200 zone. Related Reading: Ethereum Pulls Back To 20DMA After $2,700 Rejection: Testing Strength At Key Support Volume has slightly decreased from the breakout candle three weeks ago, suggesting consolidation rather than weakness. Bulls want to see ETH reclaim the $2,725 level with conviction to spark momentum. Until then, the current structure favors a slow grind higher unless macro volatility accelerates.

Ethereum is taking the lead in the crypto market as Bitcoin continues to consolidate near its all-time highs. After months of lagging behind BTC, ETH is now making a strong move, with bulls pushing price action toward the critical $2,800 resistance. This level, which has consistently capped upside momentum since early February, now stands as the key battleground for Ethereum’s next major leg. Related Reading: Altseason Loading? Analyst Explains How FTX $5B Distribution May Trigger The Next Bull Leg Market sentiment has shifted as Ethereum shows signs of reclaiming dominance, driven by renewed spot demand and strengthening technicals. Top analyst Ted Pillows has weighed in on the rally, emphasizing the importance of the $2,850 mark. According to Pillows, this is the most significant resistance Ethereum has faced in this cycle, and breaking through it could unlock a powerful move toward $3,000 and beyond. Momentum has been building steadily over the past few weeks, and ETH’s recent resilience against macroeconomic pressure is adding to the conviction. If bulls manage to flip this resistance into support, it could mark the beginning of a broader altcoin surge. For now, all eyes are on Ethereum as it flirts with a breakout that could reshape market dynamics heading into June. Ethereum Eyes Expansion Phase Amid Shifting Global Dynamics Ethereum is positioning itself for a potentially expansive move as both technical indicators and market sentiment continue to align in its favor. After weeks of consolidation and steady gains, ETH is now testing the $2,850 resistance—a level that has held price down since February. The setup suggests that Ethereum is not only regaining momentum but could also lead the next phase of the crypto rally. While the crypto market gains traction, broader macroeconomic forces are reshaping investor behavior. A recent decision by the U.S. Federal court to strike down former President Trump’s tariffs on various countries has created fresh uncertainty across global markets. This policy reversal could introduce volatility in traditional finance, as trade dynamics shift and new fiscal responses take shape. Despite this uncertainty, Ethereum appears to be thriving. There’s a view that crypto assets like ETH could perform well under tight economic conditions, and current price action supports that view. ETH is showing resilience, supported by growing spot demand, a bullish structure, and rising investor confidence. Pillows highlighted in his latest analysis that if Ethereum reclaims the $2,850 level in the coming sessions, the path to $4,000 will open quickly. This would represent a major breakout and likely trigger a wave of capital rotation from Bitcoin and stablecoins into altcoins. For now, ETH remains just below a breakout point. If bulls can push decisively above resistance, it would confirm the start of an expansionary move that could reshape the broader market, positioning Ethereum as a leading force in the next phase of the cycle. Related Reading: Dogecoin Flashes Buy Signal – Key Indicator Hints At Rebound ETH Reclaims Weekly Key Levels Ethereum is showing renewed strength on the weekly chart, currently trading at $2,728.36 after reaching a high of $2,789.50. This move marks a significant recovery from recent lows near $1,600 and confirms the formation of a strong uptrend. ETH has now reclaimed the 34-week EMA at $2,511.42 and is pushing above the 100-week SMA at $2,605.71. These moving averages now act as dynamic support levels, reinforcing bullish sentiment. The next critical level to watch is the 50-week SMA, currently sitting at $2,729.64, just slightly above the current price. A confirmed weekly close above this level would mark the first time ETH has sustained strength above it since late 2023. That could open the door for a push toward the $3,200–$3,600 zone, with $4,000 in sight if momentum accelerates. Volume has also picked up on this recent move, signaling healthy participation from buyers. Historically, similar recoveries from major moving average clusters have preceded expansive legs in Ethereum’s price. Related Reading: Ethereum Nears Critical Price Level – Reclaiming $3,000 Would Spark A Market-Wide Rally As long as ETH maintains this structure and closes the week above $2,700, bulls are likely to retain control. The breakout above $2,850—last defended in early 2024—remains the final hurdle before Ethereum can challenge prior cycle highs. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum is trading above $2,600 after a volatile stretch that saw bulls regain momentum and push the price into a key resistance zone. The recent rebound has brought renewed optimism to the market, with ETH now flirting with a potential bullish continuation. Still, the path forward remains uncertain, as analysts warn of a possible retracement before any major breakout can take shape. Related Reading: Bitcoin UTXO Signal Approaches 99% Level – Bullish Signal Or Profit-Taking Setup? Over the past few days, ETH has shown strength, bouncing off local support and reclaiming short-term moving averages. This move has shifted sentiment, but it hasn’t been enough to fully escape the risk of a short-term pullback. Some market watchers argue that a healthy retrace from current levels would be normal before any sustainable rally above resistance. Top analyst Jelle added to the conversation with a simple but compelling insight: “If ETH goes back above $3,000, the real fun begins.” The $3,000 level has acted as a psychological and technical barrier throughout this cycle, and reclaiming it would likely ignite broader market momentum. Ethereum Leads Altcoins As $3,000 Becomes The Key Battleground Ethereum is showing notable strength among altcoins, leading the market with renewed momentum as bulls continue to push for a new bullish phase. After reclaiming the $2,600 level, ETH has been steadily building support and gaining traction, setting the stage for what many analysts believe could be the beginning of a broader altcoin resurgence. However, for a true altseason to materialize, Ethereum must first reclaim and hold above the $3,000 level. This threshold is more than just a psychological milestone—it has historically acted as a pivot for strong market-wide rallies. Many experts agree that ETH needs to break through this resistance to confirm leadership and spark confidence across the altcoin sector. Hope remains high, particularly among analysts who see Ethereum following Bitcoin’s lead. As BTC continues to test its all-time highs, some believe that once its current bullish impulse cools off, capital will rotate into ETH and other large-cap altcoins. This rotation could serve as the ignition point for a market-wide rally. Jelle supports this view, stating that if Ethereum reclaims $3,000, a bullish impulse will take place. According to his analysis, a confirmed breakout above this level would mark the start of a powerful continuation phase, likely sending ETH quickly toward $3,400 and beyond. Until then, Ethereum remains in a critical position—strong enough to lead, but still facing key resistance. If bulls maintain momentum and reclaim $3,000 with conviction, the stage will be set not only for Ethereum’s next leg up but for a full-scale altseason across the market. The coming days could prove decisive. Related Reading: Solana Bulls Watch The $190 Level – ATHs Back In Sight? ETH Consolidates Below 200-Day SMA Ethereum (ETH) is currently trading at $2,634 on the daily chart, consolidating just below a key resistance zone marked by the 200-day SMA at $2,699.60. After a sharp move up earlier in May, ETH has entered a sideways structure, with bulls defending the $2,500–$2,600 zone while attempting to break above the $2,700 level. Price action shows a tightening range, often a precursor to a breakout or breakdown. ETH is holding above the 34-day EMA ($2,513) and all shorter-term moving averages (50- and 100-day SMAs), signaling that bullish momentum remains intact in the short to mid-term. The fact that Ethereum is consolidating above key support levels rather than correcting sharply is a constructive sign for bulls. Volume remains relatively stable during this phase, suggesting neither buyers nor sellers have fully committed yet. A clean daily close above the 200-day SMA with volume could trigger the next bullish impulse, targeting the psychological $3,000 level.

Ethereum is at a critical juncture as it approaches the $2,700 level, widely viewed as the next key resistance that bulls must overcome to confirm a bullish setup. This comes as Bitcoin broke above its all-time high yesterday, pushing the crypto market into a new phase that could unleash substantial gains across altcoins. For Ethereum, this moment could define the next leg of its recovery rally. Related Reading: Ethereum Consolidates Above $2,500 While BTC Leads the Charge – Key Levels To Watch Since early May, ETH has surged over 55%, fueled by renewed investor confidence, broader market strength, and increasing capital rotation from Bitcoin into large-cap altcoins. The sentiment is shifting, and Ethereum’s ability to lead the charge will likely influence the pace of altseason. Glassnode data highlights the improving fundamentals behind the move. In May, Ethereum reclaimed its Realized Price at $1,900—putting the average holder back in profit after a long stretch in the red. Price has also climbed above the True Market Mean at $2,400, historically seen as a reliable bullish signal. However, a clear break above $2,700 remains essential to validate this trend and attract further momentum-driven capital. Whether ETH can deliver that confirmation will shape how quickly the altcoin market gains traction in the wake of Bitcoin’s breakout. Ethereum Holds Strong As Altcoin Momentum Builds Ethereum is leading the altcoin charge as investors position themselves for what many expect to be a massive rally in the coming weeks. After months of volatility, ETH has reasserted its strength by reclaiming key technical and on-chain levels. Since crossing back above the $2,200 mark, Ethereum’s price structure has leaned decisively bullish, forming higher lows and consolidating around a critical resistance zone near $2,700. Bulls remain firmly in control, and Ethereum is once again being looked to as the benchmark for broader altcoin sentiment. In a market environment now defined by Bitcoin’s recent breakout above all-time highs, ETH is well-positioned to benefit from capital rotation into high-cap altcoins. To fully validate a bullish continuation, however, Ethereum must break above and hold the $2,700–$2,900 range. Glassnode on-chain data adds another layer of bullish conviction. In May, Ethereum broke above its Realized Price at $1,900, putting the average holder back in profit—a milestone that typically signals renewed investor confidence. ETH has also moved above its True Market Mean at $2,400, a key historical metric that aligns with strong accumulation phases. However, the final hurdle lies at the Active Realized Price, currently near $2,900. Reclaiming that level would not only confirm a major structural breakout but also signal that recent buyers are holding strong and that confidence has returned at scale. Until then, ETH remains in a powerful setup, but the next few sessions will be critical for confirming whether the altcoin market’s leader is ready to drive the next leg higher. Related Reading: Ethereum Addresses In Profit Nearly Doubles Since April Lows – Volatility Returns ETH Price Tests Major Resistance Ethereum continues to push higher, with price currently consolidating around the $2,665 mark after briefly touching $2,734. The daily chart shows ETH holding a clear uptrend since early May, with higher lows and strong buying volume supporting the move. All key moving averages are sloping upward, with the 34 EMA currently at $2,249 and the 50 SMA at $1,965—both well below the current price, reinforcing bullish structure. The most immediate technical challenge lies at the 200-day SMA, marked at $2,703. This long-term indicator has acted as dynamic resistance in previous cycles and will be critical to watch. A daily close above this level could trigger a breakout and confirm a broader bullish continuation, possibly opening the door toward reclaiming the $2,900–$3,000 region. Related Reading: Litecoin Eyes $117.50 As Price Rebounds From Key Support – Analyst Volume has picked up slightly on recent green candles, signaling growing demand, but the test of the $2,700 zone could invite short-term profit taking.

Ethereum is gaining momentum as optimism returns to the crypto market. With Bitcoin officially entering price discovery and surging past its all-time highs, attention is turning toward ETH, which is now testing critical resistance levels. Ethereum has gained over 55% since early May, riding the wave of broader market strength and renewed investor confidence. However, despite the impressive recovery, ETH still lags behind Bitcoin’s pace and has yet to reclaim its 2021 highs. Related Reading: Litecoin Eyes $117.50 As Price Rebounds From Key Support – Analyst Top analyst Daan shared a technical view highlighting that Ethereum has been chopping around the $2,400–$2,600 zone since its explosive move earlier this month. This range-bound price action signals indecision, as buyers remain active but haven’t yet triggered a breakout. Daan notes that although Bitcoin is showing strong leadership with its push into new highs, Ethereum’s performance in this phase has been more muted. Still, the setup remains constructive for bulls. The $2,400 level has acted as solid support, while resistance above $2,800 remains the next target to clear for continuation. As Bitcoin continues to lead, ETH could be next in line to surge—if it can escape this range and follow BTC’s lead into a new leg higher. All eyes are now on Ethereum’s next move. Ethereum Prepares For A Breakout As Altcoins Enter The Spotlight As Bitcoin surged to a new all-time high above $111K, the broader crypto market appears to be entering a fresh phase of momentum, one that could drive massive gains across altcoins. Among them, Ethereum remains in a critical position. While ETH hasn’t followed BTC’s breakout just yet, it’s holding firmly above support and showing signs of building strength. To confirm a bullish continuation, ETH needs to break decisively above resistance and lead the altcoin rally. Daan shared a technical view highlighting that ETH has been consolidating between the $2,400 and $2,600 levels since its last squeeze higher. Despite Bitcoin’s explosive move, Ethereum is once again lagging, a dynamic that’s been reflected in a cooling ETH/BTC ratio. This underperformance has sparked debate among traders, with many waiting for ETH to catch up and drive the next altseason. Daan emphasized that the $2,500 zone has been well-defended by bulls, but ETH has yet to produce a convincing breakout. The key resistance level to watch is $2,850—clearing it would mark a technical shift toward higher highs. On the flip side, if ETH falls below $2,100, it could trigger a broader pullback. For now, ETH remains range-bound but poised, with market sentiment growing more optimistic by the day. Related Reading: Solana Multi-Year Uptrend Holds Strong – Analyst Sees SOL Breaking ATH This Year ETH Tests Critical Price Levels Ethereum is showing signs of renewed strength on the 4-hour chart, trading around $2,668 at the time of writing. After weeks of consolidation in the $2,400–$2,600 range, ETH has pushed toward the upper boundary of this zone, hinting at a possible breakout. The recent bounce from support around $2,450 has been strong, with consecutive green candles and rising volume signaling increasing bullish momentum. The 200-period SMA and EMA, currently at $2,077 and $2,1,99 respectively, are well below the current price, confirming a bullish market structure. ETH has held above both moving averages since early May, and the current price action appears to be building up pressure for a decisive move. Related Reading: Dogecoin Momentum Fades – Analyst Expects $0.213 Retest However, ETH must now break above $2,700 convincingly to confirm a breakout and signal a continuation toward higher resistance at $2,850 and beyond. This level has been tested multiple times, but sellers continue to defend it. A breakout could trigger a rapid move to $3,000, while failure to hold current levels could drag ETH back toward its previous support. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum has been holding steady above the $1,800 level despite multiple failed attempts to break higher. The current price action signals a potential shift, with volatility compressing and momentum building for a major move in either direction. After months of selling pressure and weak performance relative to Bitcoin, analysts now believe ETH is approaching a critical inflection point. Related Reading: Dogecoin Whales Buy 100 Million DOGE In 24 Hours – Demand Signals Growing Confidence Top analyst Ted Pillows shared a key technical observation, highlighting the formation of a long-legged Doji candle on Ethereum’s monthly timeframe. This type of candle typically reflects intense market indecision, where both bulls and bears tested the extremes, but neither side gained clear control by the close. It’s often seen near major turning points, especially after prolonged downtrends or consolidations. If Ethereum can reclaim the $2,000 level in the coming sessions, it would confirm bullish intent and open the door to a stronger rally. On the other hand, failure to hold above $1,750 could trigger renewed downside pressure, possibly retesting deeper support zones. For now, ETH remains trapped in a tight range, but the technical setup and market structure suggest that a decisive breakout could soon define Ethereum’s path for the weeks ahead. Ethereum Key Resistance Levels Limit Upside Ethereum has been trading below the $2,000 level since late March, and this prolonged consolidation signals a market still searching for direction. Despite bouncing from local lows, ETH remains over 55% down from its December highs, reflecting the broader weakness in the altcoin market. Bulls have managed to hold the $1,800 level, but a sustained breakout above supply-heavy zones like $2,000–$2,100 is required to confirm any meaningful reversal. In the short term, Ethereum has started to build a more bullish structure, with higher lows forming across intraday charts. This suggests that bulls are gradually reclaiming control, though the pressure from sellers remains strong. Volume continues to thin out during upward moves, and without a decisive breakout, price may continue to chop sideways or revisit lower support zones near $1,700 or $1,550. Market sentiment is cautiously optimistic, with analysts closely watching technical signals for confirmation. Pillows pointed out that ETH recently formed a long-legged Doji candle on the monthly chart—a rare formation that often signals market indecision or the beginning of a trend reversal. If this candle marks a turning point, Ethereum may be preparing for a breakout. However, until bulls reclaim key resistance, the risk of a move into lower demand zones remains very real. Related Reading: HYPE Confirms Strength With Solid Throwback Response – Bullish Reversal? ETH Price Consolidates as Bulls Eye Breakout Ethereum is currently trading at $1,830, holding firm after several days of tight consolidation between $1,750 and $1,850. This narrow range has defined recent price action, as bulls and bears remain locked in a standoff near key resistance. For bulls to maintain control and confirm a reversal structure, a decisive breakout above the $1,850 level is critical. Reclaiming the $2,000 zone would likely spark renewed buying momentum and shift short-term sentiment in favor of the upside. However, the longer ETH stays capped below resistance, the greater the risk of a breakdown. If bulls fail to push above the $1,850 level soon, selling pressure may intensify. A loss of support at $1,750 could open the door for a move back toward the $1,700 zone. Further weakness from there could drag ETH down to retest the $1,500 level, where demand previously stepped in. Related Reading: Solana Monthly Candle Reclaims Key Levels – Is $240 The Next Target? With macroeconomic uncertainty still weighing on markets and Ethereum underperforming relative to Bitcoin, traders are watching closely for a decisive move. Until then, ETH remains trapped in a tight range where momentum is building, and a breakout or breakdown is likely just around the corner. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum is now holding above critical support levels after a volatile few weeks, but it continues to struggle with reclaiming key resistance zones. Bulls have managed to regain some momentum, helping ETH stabilize above the $1,700 level. However, to confirm a true bullish structure and shift sentiment decisively, Ethereum must reclaim and hold higher ground in the coming days. Related Reading: Ethereum Attempts First Major Horizontal Reclaim In Months – Can Bulls Hold the Line? Top analyst Daan shared a technical setup highlighting a promising development: Ethereum is flipping a previous horizontal level back into support. According to Daan, this marks a meaningful change in ETH’s market dynamics, as it’s something the asset has failed to do for months. Instead of consistently rejecting resistance and making lower lows, ETH is now showing early signs of strength by defending critical zones. Still, the battle isn’t over. Global macro uncertainty and tensions between the US and China continue to pressure all risk assets, including crypto. For Ethereum, a daily close above key resistance could open the door to a more decisive move higher, while failure to do so could leave it vulnerable to another round of consolidation or downside. Ethereum Faces A Critical Test After Strong Recovery Ethereum has staged an impressive recovery, gaining over 32% from its local low of $1,383. Now trading firmly above $1,700, ETH faces a crucial test: holding current levels to shift its longer-term bearish price structure into a more bullish trend. After months of relentless selling pressure, this stabilization could mark the start of a larger reversal if momentum is sustained. However, broader macroeconomic risks still loom. The ongoing conflict between the US and China continues to pressure financial markets, with growing concerns that a prolonged negotiation process could disrupt global supply chains. If no resolution is reached in the coming weeks, risk assets like Ethereum could struggle to maintain their recent gains. A breakthrough deal, however, could quickly shift investor appetite back toward risk-on assets, fueling a stronger rally. Daan’s technical analysis highlights a major shift in ETH’s behavior. For the first time in months, Ethereum is flipping a previous horizontal resistance zone back into support—a sign of strengthening market dynamics. Daan suggests closely monitoring the $1,750–$2,100 range, as a firm hold above this area would signal a significant improvement in ETH’s structure. A daily close above $1,750 and gradual consolidation within this key range would position Ethereum for a potential breakout toward higher levels in the coming months. Related Reading: Bitcoin Rally Lacks On-Chain Support – Analyst Warns Of Vanishing Network Activity ETH Price Holds Above Key Support, But Challenges Remain Ethereum is currently trading at $1,790, maintaining its position above the critical 4-hour 200 EMA. This technical level has acted as strong support in recent days, providing bulls with a foundation to build momentum. Holding above $1,700 is crucial to maintain the bullish structure that has started to form after weeks of volatility and selling pressure. To confirm a strong recovery and shift into a sustained uptrend, ETH must reclaim the $2,000 psychological level. A decisive break and hold above $2,000 would likely attract renewed buying interest and could open the door for a move toward higher resistance zones. However, without a strong catalyst, bulls could struggle to maintain upward pressure in the short term. Related Reading: Bitcoin Reclaims Key Levels – New ATHs May Be Closer Than Expected On the downside, losing the $1,700 support would signal growing weakness and likely invite further selling. A break below this zone could send Ethereum back into the $1,500 region, reigniting concerns of a prolonged consolidation or deeper correction. For now, the market remains cautiously optimistic, but all eyes are on whether bulls can build enough momentum to reclaim higher ground soon. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum has officially broken key technical resistance, pushing above the $1,800 mark and signaling a return of bullish momentum. After weeks of uncertainty and selling pressure, this breakout suggests a possible shift in trend, with bulls now eyeing a reclaim of the critical $2,000 psychological level. Despite ongoing global tensions and the shadow of a trade war between the US and China, crypto markets are showing resilience, and Ethereum is leading the charge. Related Reading: XRP Network Activity Jumps 67% In 24 Hours – Big Move Ahead? According to data from IntoTheBlock, Ethereum’s market cap surged by 12% in the last 24 hours, highlighting renewed investor interest and capital inflows. On-chain indicators further support the bullish case, with the platform noting only modest resistance ahead. The largest concentration of potential selling pressure sits near $1,860, a level that could be cleared quickly if current momentum holds. While macroeconomic uncertainty remains a risk, Ethereum’s breakout above $1,800 and the relatively clear path to higher levels have traders optimistic. If ETH can maintain strength and climb past $1,860, the next stop could be above higher supply levels. With bullish energy building across the crypto market, Ethereum’s latest move could be the start of something much bigger. Ethereum Bulls Target $2,000 As Resistance Weakens Ethereum is setting up for a major move as price action shows clear strength emerging from low-demand zones. After weeks of choppy consolidation and bearish sentiment, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap is gaining momentum, hinting at a broader trend reversal. While global markets remain under pressure from rising geopolitical tensions, particularly the intensifying trade conflict between the US and China, Ethereum and other altcoins are showing signs of decoupling from traditional financial markets. This shift is encouraging investors who previously exited risk assets to re-enter with cautious optimism. Ethereum, in particular, is benefiting from renewed on-chain activity and increased buying pressure. According to IntoTheBlock, Ethereum has little standing in its way toward higher levels, with only modest resistance ahead. The largest potential sell wall has formed near the $1,860 mark, a key zone that could soon be tested. If bulls manage to break through this resistance level, the path to the psychological $2,000 level becomes significantly clearer. Given the strength of the recent rally and improving market structure, such a move is well within reach. Momentum is building, and Ethereum is once again emerging as a leading asset in what could become the next leg of the crypto bull cycle. Related Reading: Ethereum Holds Above MVRV Band Low – A Final Dip Before Recovery? ETH Breaks Above Key Moving Averages Ethereum is trading at $1,800, showing strong momentum after breaking above both the 4-hour 200 MA and EMA for the first time since January. This technical breakout marks a shift in short-term trend structure, as bulls regain control of the market following weeks of bearish pressure. Now, the key challenge is holding the $1,750 level—precisely where both moving averages converge—making it a critical zone for confirming continued upside. A decisive move above the $1,800 level would further validate the breakout and open the door for a test of the $2,000 psychological barrier. This would signal renewed market confidence and potentially trigger a wave of new buying interest. However, if Ethereum fails to maintain its position above $1,750 or faces resistance near $1,800, the asset could enter a consolidation phase. This would likely extend the current range-bound trading between $1,700 and $1,850, delaying any swift return to higher valuations. Related Reading: Solana Short-Term Indicator Signals Potential Risk – Reversal Or Pause? For now, the technical setup is favorable.

Ethereum and the broader crypto market experienced a small but notable pump yesterday, reigniting hopes of a potential trend reversal after weeks of sustained selling pressure. As market uncertainty intensifies, driven largely by global economic tensions and geopolitical strain between the US and China, investors are closely watching for signs of a breakout. Related Reading: Ethereum Enters Historic Buy Zone As Price Dips Below Key Level – Insights Despite the headwinds, analysts are starting to shift their tone. Some believe that the worst may be behind for Ethereum and that a strong move to the upside could be brewing. One of the most vocal among them is top analyst Carl Runefelt, who shared a bold outlook, suggesting that Ethereum “might go absolutely parabolic starting from here.” His analysis suggests that ETH is poised to break out from a daily descending trendline, which could serve as a key technical signal indicating va shift in momentum in favor of the bulls. As Ethereum holds above critical support levels and inches closer to a potential trend reversal, traders and investors are now watching closely for follow-through confirmation. If volume and sentiment continue to build, this could be the beginning of a significant rally — one that may reset expectations for the rest of the cycle. Ethereum Eyes Recovery Amid Rising Global Tensions Global tensions and macroeconomic uncertainty continue to weigh heavily on investor sentiment, with the ongoing trade war between the US and China sending shockwaves through equities and high-risk assets. In the midst of this fragile backdrop, Ethereum has managed to find a solid support level around $1,500 and is now attempting to reclaim higher ground. After weeks of selling pressure that erased bullish expectations for the year, ETH is showing early signs of recovery. Ethereum’s current price structure has become a focal point for market participants. The recent bounce from $1,500 marks a potential higher low, a technical setup often associated with trend reversals. If ETH can successfully push above the $1,700 mark and break the descending trendline, it could spark renewed momentum for bulls. Runefelt shared an optimistic view, stating that Ethereum could go up really fast from here. According to his analysis, the next key price target sits at $3,000, assuming a confirmed breakout above short-term resistance levels. Despite continued global risks, the Ethereum network remains fundamentally strong, with growing adoption in DeFi and real-world assets. If the breakout materializes and broader market sentiment stabilizes, ETH could lead the next leg of the crypto recovery. Related Reading: Metrics Reveal Solana Sees Uptick In Whale Activity – Accumulation Signal?

This price range has acted as a major barrier over the past several weeks, limiting bullish momentum and keeping ETH locked in a broader downtrend. Bulls must reclaim the local high at $1,691, set last week, to signal a potential shift in structure and confirm the start of a recovery rally. A decisive move above $1,700 could open the door to a test of the $2,000 level, which would mark a significant psychological and technical milestone. However, the lack of follow-through on recent upside attempts reflects ongoing uncertainty across crypto markets, largely driven by macroeconomic tensions and risk-off sentiment.

All eyes are now on whether bulls can build enough momentum to flip resistance into support and avoid another leg down. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum is trading below critical resistance levels after enduring weeks of heavy selling pressure and lackluster performance. Since breaking below the psychological $2,000 mark, the price has dropped more than 21%, signaling growing uncertainty among short-term investors. This decline has raised questions among market participants, especially as Ethereum’s on-chain fundamentals remain robust. Related Reading: Solana Turns Bullish On 8H Chart – Break Above $147 Could Confirm New Trend Top analyst Ted Pillows shared insights suggesting that ETH is now trading near bear market lows—yet the network has never looked stronger.

It is also the only altcoin with an approved spot ETF in the US, and numerous upgrades are lined up to improve its speed and reduce transaction costs. Despite these strengths, Ethereum’s price remains suppressed, leading to growing speculation: is this just market sentiment at play, or could it reflect coordinated manipulation to shake out weak hands before a reversal? As Ethereum continues to dominate the utility narrative in crypto, many long-term holders see this downturn as a strategic accumulation zone, while others brace for more downside. Ethereum Fundamentals Shine Despite Bearish Market Conditions Ethereum is facing a critical test as it trades near major demand levels while macroeconomic uncertainty deepens. Global tensions persist as US President Donald Trump escalates his trade war with China. The recent 90-day tariff pause for all countries except China has done little to ease market fears. As economic pressure builds between the world’s two largest economies, investors are increasingly turning away from high-risk assets like crypto, driving volatility across digital markets. Ethereum, like the broader crypto market, has suffered under this weight. The asset is now hovering just above bear market lows after a prolonged decline, prompting concerns over its short-term price action. Yet, despite the technical weakness, Pillows points to Ethereum’s strong fundamentals as a reason to remain optimistic. According to Pillows, Ethereum remains the backbone of the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem. It processes over 95% of all stablecoin transactions, commands the highest Total Value Locked (TVL), and leads the charge in Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization. It’s also the only altcoin the US has approved for a spot ETF, adding institutional legitimacy. With several protocol upgrades ahead aimed at improving scalability and reducing costs, Pillows believes Ethereum’s current valuation could represent a long-term buying opportunity. As he puts it: if you believe in fundamentals, ETH remains the top bet among altcoins. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Stalls In Tight Range – Big Price Move Incoming? ETH Price Stuck In Range: Bulls Eye $1,800 Breakout Ethereum is trading at $1,590 after several days of choppy price action between $1,500 and $1,700. The market remains stuck in this narrow range as bulls struggle to regain momentum amid broader macroeconomic uncertainty. The inability to reclaim key resistance zones has kept ETH under pressure, and a decisive breakout is needed to shift sentiment. Bulls are currently eyeing the 4-hour 200-day Moving Average (MA) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA), both sitting near the $1,800 level. Reclaiming this zone would mark a major short-term victory for buyers and could signal the beginning of a recovery phase. A clean break above $1,800 would also invalidate the current lower-high structure and potentially drive ETH toward higher supply areas near $2,000.

If Ethereum fails to hold above current support levels and dips below $1,550, the next leg could send the asset beneath the $1,500 mark. For now, the $1,500–$1,800 corridor defines Ethereum’s battleground, and traders are closely watching for a breakout that sets the next major direction.

Ethereum is trading back above the key $2,000 level after spending several volatile weeks attempting to reclaim it. Since late February, ETH has dropped more than 38%, triggering widespread panic as the price broke below major support and briefly dipped under $1,800. The decline sparked fears of a prolonged downtrend, with many questioning whether Ethereum had entered a bear market.

Investors are now looking for signs of recovery as ETH stabilizes and retests important levels. A growing number of analysts believe that the recent volatility may have been a final shakeout before a new uptrend. Top analyst Ted Pillows shared insights on X, suggesting that Ethereum may be wrapping up its “manipulation phase.” This phase typically features erratic price action designed to exhaust both bulls and bears before the market commits to a clear direction. If the phase ends soon, Ethereum could rebound significantly in the coming weeks. As ETH hovers near $2,000, the next few sessions will be crucial in determining whether bulls can maintain momentum or if further downside lies ahead. Ethereum Bulls Face A Test As Expansion Phase Looms Ethereum is showing early signs of strength as it hovers just above the critical $2,000 mark, a level that has acted as both a psychological and technical battleground for weeks. Bulls are being called into action as the broader market begins to stabilize, with ETH price action hinting at a potential recovery. However, the situation remains fragile, with uncertainty dominating sentiment and no clear trend established yet. Speculation is split between those anticipating a deeper correction and others betting on a full-scale recovery. For now, Ethereum remains range-bound, and any breakout attempt must be backed by strong conviction to shift momentum. Bulls must defend the $2,000 level and begin targeting higher resistance zones to spark confidence in a sustained uptrend. Pillows stated that Ethereum is likely exiting what he calls the “manipulation phase” — a confusing, price movement designed to exhaust buyers and sellers. According to Pillows, this phase is nearly over, and Ethereum’s expansion time is about to begin. A confirmed breakout above the $2,200 level would be the catalyst for a new expansion cycle, potentially sending ETH into higher territory in the weeks ahead. Until then, price action will remain sensitive, with the next few sessions crucial in deciding Ethereum’s trajectory.

This move marks an important step for bulls who are now trying to solidify momentum and prevent further downside. However, the real test lies ahead, as ETH must reclaim the $2,250 level to initiate a true recovery phase. The $2,250 mark aligns with previous areas of heavy trading activity and could act as the launchpad for a broader uptrend if bulls manage to flip it into support. Successfully retaking this level would likely attract fresh demand and restore investor confidence, especially after the asset shed more than 38% of its value since late February.

If Ethereum fails to hold above $2,000, the market could experience renewed selling pressure, potentially pushing ETH back toward the $1,800 support level. Such a drop would reinforce bearish sentiment and delay any potential recovery rally. For now, traders are watching closely to see if Ethereum can build on its current strength and reclaim higher levels in the sessions ahead. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
On-chain data shows the cost of making a transfer on the Ethereum network has plunged recently. Here’s what this could mean for the ETH price. Ethereum Average Fees Has Gone Down Recently In a new post on X, the on-chain analytics firm Santiment has discussed about the latest trend in the Average Fees of Ethereum. The “Average Fees” here refers to an indicator that keeps track of the average amount of fees (in USD) that users on the ETH network are attaching with their transactions. Related Reading: How Close Is Bitcoin To A Bear Market? This Historical Level May Contain Hints This indicator’s value tends to be directly related to the activity that’s occurring on the network. When there is a high amount of traffic, the Average Fees can note an uptick. This is because the blockchain only has a limited capacity to handle transactions, so the validators prefer to process the transfers with the highest fees first. Users that don’t want to be stuck waiting in the mempool have no choice, but to pay a transfer fees that’s higher than the average. As senders compete against each other in this manner, the Average Fees can shoot up during a period of congestion. In times of little network activity, though, the metric can stay at low levels, as investors have no incentive to pay a high fee. Now, here is the chart shared by the analytics firm, that shows the trend in the Ethereum Average Fees over the last couple of years: As displayed in the above graph, the Ethereum Average Fees has been in a state of decline recently, which implies the activity on the network has potentially been going down. Today, the metric is sitting at just $0.4088, which is the lowest that it has been since late August. While a high amount of activity is constructive during uptrends (since all of the users making trades is what provides the fuel to keep such moves going), low network fees may not be so bad while the market is already down. As Santiment explains, When users are not paying high prices to move their ETH or tokens, it is typically a good sign for mid-term and long-term price outlooks. These low fee levels often happen when prices are perceived as ‘low’ or ‘bearish’ according to traders. These reduced costs make it easier for new buyers to enter the market.

ETH Price Ethereum has been locked in sideways movement since the crash around the start of the month as its price continues to trade around $2,700.

Ethereum has been closing between $2,650 and $2,750 for the past week, creating uncertainty in the short term. The price action remains indecisive as bulls struggle to reclaim the $2,800 level, a key supply zone that could determine Ethereum’s next move. While the long-term outlook remains uncertain, Ethereum is trading at crucial demand levels, facing continuous selling pressure that has kept price action muted. Related Reading: Bitcoin STH Realized Profit Reveals Strong Support Level – Time For A Breakout? Investors are trying to stay calm amid volatility, but fear is spreading as Ethereum shows signs of weakness compared to Bitcoin. Some analysts worry that if ETH fails to hold above $2,600, a deeper correction could follow. However, others remain optimistic, suggesting that ETH could be forming a long-term bullish structure. Crypto analyst Jelle shared a technical analysis on X revealing that ETH still trades inside a multi-year ascending triangle, a formation that has historically signaled strong potential for a breakout. If ETH can hold above the current levels and push past the $2,800 mark, it could trigger a recovery toward the key $3,000 resistance. For now, all eyes are on Ethereum’s next move, as the coming days could be decisive in shaping its short-term trajectory. Ethereum Testing Crucial Liquidity Levels Ethereum is currently trading between key liquidity levels of short-term demand and supply, with price action trapped in a tight range. Over the past week, ETH has closed between $2,650 and $2,750, creating uncertainty about its short-term direction. Investors remain divided, with some expecting a further correction and extended consolidation phase, while others anticipate a recovery rally soon. The market is waiting for a breakout or breakdown confirmation to determine the next trend. Related Reading: Altseason At Risk? Expert Believes Ethereum Must Hold $2,600 To Sustain Momentum Ethereum is attempting to push above the $2,700 mark and hold it as support, which would be the first sign of bullish momentum. However, for a confirmed recovery phase, ETH must reclaim the $2,800 and $3,000 levels. These key resistance zones have acted as strong supply areas in the past and will likely dictate Ethereum’s next major move. If ETH fails to reclaim these levels, a deeper correction into lower demand around the $2,500 mark could take place. Jelle’s analysis on X reveals that ETH is still trading inside a massive ascending triangle, a multi-year bullish pattern. He noted that fakeouts have occurred on both the upside and downside, taking out liquidity in both directions. With downside liquidity now taken, Jelle expects a comeback soon, suggesting ETH could soon attempt to reclaim lost ground. If Ethereum manages to break above the $2,800 mark and sustain its momentum, a move toward the $3,000 level would be the next target. However, if selling pressure continues to dominate the market, ETH could remain in a consolidation phase or even experience further downside. The next few days will be crucial in determining whether ETH can regain bullish momentum or if a deeper correction is ahead. Price Action Lacks Short-Term Direction Ethereum is trading at $2,720 after days of sideways movement below the $2,800 mark, struggling to gain momentum for a breakout. Bulls need to step up and push the price above this level as soon as possible to shift sentiment and reclaim control of price action. The $2,800 mark has acted as a strong supply zone, and breaking above it would open the door for a move toward the $3,000 level. On the downside, defending the $2,700 and even the $2,600 level is crucial for maintaining bullish momentum. If ETH holds these levels for an extended period, it would signal strong demand and support the possibility of a recovery rally. A sustained move above $2,700 would encourage buyers to step in, increasing the chances of ETH retesting higher resistance zones. Related Reading: Are Meme Coins Hurting Solana? Rising Selling Pressure Sparks Investor Concerns However, failure to hold above $2,700 could expose Ethereum to further selling pressure. If ETH drops below the $2,600 level, a deeper correction into lower demand areas around $2,500 could follow. The next few days will be decisive in determining whether Ethereum can establish a solid base for a bullish reversal or if bears will continue to dominate price action.
