Ethereum Attempts Breakout From Multi-Month Downtrend, But Can ETH Hold $1,600?

Amid the latest market recovery, Ethereum (ETH) attempted to break out from its multi-month downtrend, leading some market watchers to suggest that a new rally could start soon. However, as price struggles to hold the $1,600 level as support, the cryptocurrency risks losing recent momentum. Related Reading: Ethereum Enters Historic Buy Zone As Price Dips Below Key Level Insights Ethereum Breakout Eyes Key Resistance On Easter Sunday, the crypto market saw a positive end-of-week after jumping 4.2%. Bitcoin (BTC) closed the week above the $85,000 barrier for the first time this month, while Ethereum surged 5.4% to attempt to reclaim the $1,600 resistance for the third time in the past seven days. ETH closed the week around the $1,640 mark before climbing to $1,658 during Mondays early hours. Amid this performance, the cryptocurrency attempted to break out of its multi-month downtrend for the first time. Crypto analyst Ted Pillows highlighted that Ethereum broke out of its descending resistance on Monday morning. According to the post, the cryptocurrency has been in a downtrend in the one-day chart since early February, retesting the trendline thrice over the past few months, but always being rejected. Its latest rejection from the descending resistance sent the cryptocurrency below the $1,700 mark, which fueled the bearish sentiment brewing toward ETH. The start-of-April retraces, driven by the ongoing tariff war between the US and China, further sent Ethereum to lower levels, hitting its two-year low below $1,400 and retesting the 2018 highs. The analyst noted that ETH could rally toward $2,000 during Aprils last leg if the cryptocurrency holds the $1,600 support, which it hasnt been able to do for most of the month. Is The ETH Bottom Close? Analyst Carl Runefelt also highlighted ETHs downtrend breakout, affirming that it might go absolutely parabolic starting from here. According to Runefelt, the resistance breakout eyes the $3,000 mark, which was lost during the February retraces. However, Ethereum has lost its short-term momentum, retracing its 24-hour gains in the past few hours. Its price dropped below the $1,600 mark into the key $1,500 support level, trading around the $1,570-$1,580 price range. This retracement could hint that ETHs recovery failed to gain strength, risking a drop to the current levels lows. However, a bounce from this zone to hold the $1,650 mark could confirm the breakout and propel the cryptocurrencys price toward $1,700-$1,800 resistance. Analyst Ali Martinez considers that ETHs new rally wont start again until it breaks through the $2,330 supply wall, where over 12.6 million addresses purchased around 68-63 million ETH.

Crypto Fella affirmed that the bottom of the ETH/BTC chart is close, as it has reached its lowest level since 2020. Per the chart, the last time ETH/BTC dropped below the 0.022 mark, it hovered between the 0.016-0.022 zone for some months before bouncing toward its late-2021 high. As of this writing, Ethereum trades at $1,571, a 1% decline in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

After losing the $180 mark two weeks ago, its price hovered between the $130-$150 range, surging to the $179 mark at the start of March. This weeks market correction, which saw Bitcoin (BTC) drop to $76,000 for the first time in four months, has sent Solana to new monthly lows. On Tuesday, SOLs price briefly dropped to $111, a level not seen since the August 2024 market crash, before bouncing back to $125. Amid the ongoing retest, pseudonym trader Crypto Busy warned that SOL must hold this crucial support to maintain a bullish sentiment above $100. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez previously noted that the most crucial zone for Solana appears to be between $110 and $125, as this horizontal level served as a key support during its 2021 and 2024 rallies. The analyst suggested that holding above this range could be key for the next move. SOL Price Risks Move To $60 Martinez also pointed out that Solana could be on the verge of a breakdown, as it has broken below its key level. According to the post, SOL risks a 50% crash to the $60 mark if it fails to hold the $125 support zone. The analyst highlighted that the cryptocurrency has been forming a right angle ascending broadening pattern since March 2024, when it first reclaimed the level during this cycle. During this period, every higher high on Solanas chart has created a rising trendline at the top of the pattern, while the $125 support has held as a strong horizontal support trendline. Related Reading: Ethereum Risks Another 15% Correction After Fall Below $2,000 Whats Next For ETH? However, SOLs break below this horizontal zone has increased the odds of a 50% price correction to the Q4 2023 levels. Additionally, Martinez recently warned of a potential correction based on Solanas trading pair against Bitcoin, which started to resemble ETH/BTCs chart. The analyst suggested that the SOL/BTC chart was looking like Ethereums trading pair against BTCs past price action, adding that if it continued to follow this pattern, the SOL/BTC chart could see a drop to the 0.0008 region. After the recent price action, the trading pair hit a 15-month low of 0.0014624 on Tuesday. As of this writing, Solana trades at $124, a 14% decline in the weekly timeframe.

Bitcoin Finds Price Stability: Reclaiming $101,000 Depends On This Level

Bitcoin (BTC) continues to move within its one-week range after recovering from its recent drop to $91,000 but has failed to reclaim support above the $98,000 mark. Some analysts consider that BTCs sentiment will remain neutral while it regains this support zone and builds up momentum toward a new high. Related Reading: Ethereum Holds Bounce Or Die Level: Rebound To $4,000 Could Be Near Bitcoin Price Stability Could Lead To $101K Reclaim Following the start-of-February market correction, Bitcoin has been moving within the $96,000-$99,000 price range. The flagship cryptocurrency has recovered from its momentary fall to $91,000 and found support within its one-week range, only dropping 2% during this Sundays market retrace. The largest cryptocurrency has been hovering between $90,000 and $108,000 since the US Elections pump, moving in the mid-zone of its four-month price range for most of this period. Crypto analyst Rekt Capital pointed out Bitcoins positive performance, as it continues to enjoy price stability above a diagonal trendline support, a previous one-month downtrend line, broken during the latest all-time high (ATH) breakout. Since the DeepSeek-triggered correction, Bitcoin recorded price advances that have been quickly getting canceled out, as evidenced by the recent upside wicks. However, BTCs price continued to hold the diagonal trendline as support over the week, which is necessary to build further momentum. According to the analyst, As long as it continues to hold, the price will be positioned for a revisit of $101k over time. After its most recent price action, BTC needs to reclaim the $97,700 mark to build on this reversal with additional follow-through. To achieve this, the flagship cryptocurrency must print a daily close above this level and reclaim it as support to build on its momentum toward the $101,000 resistance. BTC Remain Bullish in Higher Timeframes Daan Crypto Trades highlighted BTCs range hasnt changed, as it continues to move sideways while many altcoins have been losing ground. According to the X post, Bitcoin is consolidating while attempting a breakout on the lower timeframes. If the flagship crypto reclaims the highs from last weeks initial bounce, above the $100,000 barrier, BTCs market structure will flip around. Daan stated BTCs momentum is pretty neutral in the short term while bullish in the higher timeframes. Additionally, he pointed out that risk on sentiment will return once Bitcoin goes back into price discovery. According to Rekt Capital, BTCs Second Price Discovery Uptrend should come in the next few weeks, as the cryptocurrency is trying to trend reverse out of its 1st Price Discovery Correction, which started in December.
