Ethereum Running Out Of Time? Analyst Says New ATH May Not Come This Cycle

As Ethereum (ETH) continues to slowly turn crucial resistance levels into support, some analysts consider that the King of altcoins could be running out of time for a new all-time high (ATH) this cycle. Related Reading: Crypto Graveyard: 50% Of Tokens Have Failed In the Past 5 years Report Ethereum Closes April In Red Over the past week, Ethereum has attempted to reclaim the $1,800 mark, hovering between the $1,770-$1,820 price range. In the past 24 hours, the cryptocurrency has seen a 5.5% jump, breaking above the key resistance and last weeks high of $1,850. Amid this price action, ETH retested the $1,860-$1,870 range for the first time in one month, and closed April just 1.56% below in opening price. Nonetheless, Ethereums negative monthly close marked the fifth consecutive month in the red for the cryptocurrency. The king of Altcoins has been recording monthly negative returns since December, its worst-performing streak since 2018, and closed the first quarter of 2025 with a 45.4% retracement. Analyst Carl Runefelt noted this performance, noting that the good news is that historically, May is the most positive month of the year for ETH. In general, it has been one of the best-performing months for Ethereum, registering an average 27.31% increase in May. Additionally, the second quarter has been a positive period for cryptocurrency, closing Q2 in the green seven out of nine times. Despite its negative April close, Ethereum registers a mild 2.15% positive return this quarter so far, which could suggest that the cryptocurrency could continue its current performance if history repeats. Another market watcher considers that ETHs price is displaying a similar performance to Bitcoins (BTC) 2020 rally. At the time, Bitcoin consolidated at $8K Most ignored it. Then it hit $64K. According to Merlijn The Trader, Ethereum is showing the exact same structure. Accumulation. Compression. Explosion loading. However, this would suggest another pullback could come before a new ATH. ETH To Skip ATH Rally This Cycle? Meanwhile, analyst Crypto Bullet offered a not-so-bullish macro perspective. According to his post, the Ethereum mid-term correction is over after taking out the August-October 2023 lows, printing a giant reversal candle, and holding the mid-line of the multi-year descending Channel. Based on this, he argues that ETHs bottom is in, and a significant mid-term bounce will likely occur in the next few months, with a first target of $2,500. Crypto Bullet noted that the surge could be either a Dead Cat bounce or the start of a new ATH rally, adding that it could be the former due to the cryptocurrencys weak performance and how advanced the cycle is. In that case, Ethereum could face a potential rejection at the $2,700-$3,000 range, but a bullish rally could start if it breaks through the $3,000 resistance and breaks out of the multi-year channel.

In a previous analysis, Crypto Bullet discussed the potential of ETH not hitting an ATH this cycle, noting XRPs performance in 2021. So what if ETH cycle top is in and it’s gonna print a giant Accumulation Structure (a Triangle or a Zigzag) and break out of it, say, in 2028? he questioned, concluding that investors would accumulate more energy for a breakout, and the targets would be significantly higher.

Ethereum To Pull A BTC 2021-Like Rally? Analyst Shares Massive Prediction

As Bitcoin finally soars above the long-awaited $100,000 milestone, Ethereum (ETH) attempts to break out from a key resistance zone. The second-largest crypto rally has fueled optimism about its targets, with some suggesting that it could mimic BTCs 2020-2021 rally. Related Reading: Bitcoin (BTC) Crashes 33% In South Korea Amid Increasing Political Turmoil Ethereum Reclaims $3,900 Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, has recorded a 10% surge in the past week, moving from the $3,500 mark to the $3,900 resistance. On Wednesday, the King of Altcoins surpassed the $3,800 level for the first time in six months and continued climbing to retest the $3,900 resistance, not seen since early March. In the early hours of Thursday, ETH turned this key zone into support, briefly dipping to $3,860 before jumping back to the recently reclaimed level. As the cryptocurrency nears its yearly high of $4,093, sentiment around the tokens short-term performance has turned extremely bullish. Ethereum is retesting a massive multi-year resistance zone, which could send ETH to a new ATH. According to analyst Alex Clay, the cryptocurrency attempts to break through the Key Resistance Zone on the weekly timeframe. ETH has rested the key zone five times since 2021, facing rejection from the upper resistance at $3,950 on four occasions before. However, Ethereum broke past this level in late 2021, when it hit its all-time high (ATH) and held above it for nearly three months. The analyst noted that if the King of Altcoins successfully breaks above this level and turns it into support, it will be the next to break through and smash its ATH. Clay added that he sees no major pullback in the near time. Similarly, crypto analyst Jelle stated that if Ethereum breaks above the March high, all bets are off, suggesting that the chances of ETH taking a long consolidation period before a new ATH like BTC did were very low. ETH To Rally Toward $10,000? Jelle also noted that Ethereums current setup mimicked Bitcoins in July 2020. Per the chart, Bitcoin broke through a multi-year downtrend line by mid-2020, followed by a massive 500% 10-month rally toward the $60,000 mark in April 2021. The analyst noted that ETH breached the multi-year trendline today, like BTC in 2020, which could trigger a similar rally toward new highs in the next few months. He added that investors are in for a treat if this plays out anything similar. In another post, he highlighted that Ethereum started rallying when Bitcoin broke its ATH and entered price discovery when BTC traded nearly 100% above its previous cycle high.

BTC & ETH climbing in tandem, leading to ETH entering price discovery somewhere around ±$130,000. Based on this, the analyst believes that a 150-200% rally toward the $10,000-$12,000 price range for the cryptocurrency is possible for this cycle. As of this writing, ETH is trading at $3,905, a 2.4% increase in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Ethereum Faces Aggressive Shorting As Taker Sellers Outpace Buyers By $350M Daily Analyst

Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, had a lackluster 2024, underperforming against Bitcoin and many altcoins throughout the year. However, as 2025 begins, Ethereum is starting to show signs of recovery, gaining over 10% in less than a week. This early surge has rekindled hope among investors and analysts who see potential for a strong performance this year. Related Reading: Dogecoin Explodes Overnight Price Action Suggests Fresh Highs Above $0.50 Top analyst Maartunn recently shared insightful data highlighting an ongoing trend of aggressive shorting in Ethereum markets. According to Maartunn, taker sellers have been dominating the market, outpacing taker buyers by over $350 million daily. This aggressive shorting could explain Ethereums poor performance in 2024, as constant selling pressure likely suppressed upward momentum. With the new years optimism, many believe this shorting trend may begin to shift, creating conditions for Ethereum to reclaim its position as a market leader. As the altcoin leader pushes past its challenges, the coming weeks will be critical to determine whether this early rally marks the beginning of a more sustained upward trend. Investors are closely watching Ethereum, anticipating that a reversal of these bearish trends could lead to a stellar 2025 for the network. Ethereum Rising Amid Aggressive Shorting Trends Ethereum is attempting to push above its 2024 high, but a decisive breakout remains elusive. Recent price action indicates the potential for a rally, with ETH posting early gains in 2025. However, the path forward isnt clear-cut, as significant selling pressure continues to weigh on the altcoin leader. Top analyst Maartunn recently shared insightful data from CryptoQuant, shedding light on the current market dynamics. According to the data, Ethereum is experiencing aggressive shorting, with taker sellers dominating trading activity. Over $350 million more in sell-side pressure than buy-side activity is recorded daily, creating a challenging environment for ETH to break free from its current range. This trend, while suppressing prices in the short term, cant last indefinitely. Market cycles often see such aggressive shorting as a precursor to a reversal, as sellers run out of momentum and buying pressure begins to build. Long-term investors are reportedly eyeing this phase as an opportunity, positioning themselves to capitalize on Ethereums relatively low prices. Related Reading: Solana Breaks Above Daily Downtrend Analyst Expects New ATH Soon As Ethereum navigates these dynamics, the next few weeks will be crucial. A clean breakout above last years high could signal the start of a broader rally, attracting renewed interest and potentially reversing the ongoing shorting trend. For now, ETH remains at a pivotal juncture. Price Testing Crucial Levels Ethereum is trading at $3,650 after a robust start to 2025, gaining significant traction in the early days of the year. The price recently broke above the 4-hour 200 EMA with impressive strength, a technical indicator often viewed as a critical threshold for long-term trends. ETH is now testing the 200 MA on the same timeframe, a level that could confirm the bullish trend if reclaimed and held as support. A strong daily close above the 200 MA would solidify Ethereums upward momentum, potentially paving the way for a massive rally to challenge and surpass last years highs. Such a move would likely reinvigorate market sentiment and attract additional buying pressure, driving Ethereum to new levels in the near term.

If Ethereum fails to hold the 200 MA as support, the market could witness a renewed wave of selling pressure. This would likely push ETH back toward lower levels, eroding recent gains and prolonging its battle to regain upward momentum. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

MVRV Pricing Bands Suggest Ethereum Cycle Peak Is Still Ahead Analyst Sets $7,000 Target

Ethereum, the largest altcoin by market capitalization, is trading at surprisingly low levels compared to its peers, raising concerns among investors. As the broader crypto market shows signs of strength, Ethereum’s underperformance has sparked fears that this cycle may not deliver the returns many expected from the leading altcoin. Sentiment in the market is shifting, with some questioning whether Ethereum can reclaim its former dominance amid fierce competition from emerging projects. Related Reading: Dogecoin Trades Within Multi-Year Ascending Channel Expert Sets $15 Price Target However, a closer look at key metrics offers a more optimistic perspective. According to the MVRV Pricing Bands chart, Ethereum is still far from its previous all-time high (ATH). This metric, which evaluates the market value relative to realized value, suggests that ETH has significant room to grow in the coming months. While the current price action may seem discouraging to some, historical data indicates that Ethereum often lags in the early stages of a bull market before catching up with explosive moves. For long-term investors, this could represent an opportunity rather than a setback, as Ethereums fundamentals remain strong and its ecosystem continues to expand. As the market anticipates the next phase of growth, all eyes are on Ethereum to see if it can reclaim its leadership role and deliver on its potential. Ethereum Preparing To Surprise The Market  Ethereum has faced significant challenges over the past month, remaining in a downtrend since mid-December. The cryptocurrency has dropped as much as 29% in less than 30 days, testing the patience of investors as the broader market shows strength while ETH struggles to gain momentum. Trading below key supply levels, Ethereum’s performance has raised concerns about its ability to keep up with the overall crypto rally. Despite the bleak sentiment, some analysts see Ethereums current situation as an opportunity rather than a setback. Top analyst Carl Runefelt recently shared insights on X, pointing to the MVRV Pricing Bands chart as a key indicator of Ethereums potential. According to Runefelt, ETH is far from its all-time high (ATH), suggesting significant room for growth. He confidently stated that a $7,000 price target for Ethereum is only a matter of time, given its long-term fundamentals and historical market cycles. Runefelt also highlighted Ethereums readiness to change the bearish sentiment surrounding it. As the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, Ethereums extensive ecosystem and institutional adoption remain strong drivers for future growth.

With sentiment poised to shift and key metrics signaling room for growth, ETH has the potential to recover and reclaim its position as a market leader. ETH Price Testing Key Demand Ethereum (ETH) is currently trading at $3,302 following days of heightened volatility and sustained selling pressure. Despite the challenging market conditions, ETH has demonstrated resilience by holding above a key demand zone near the 200-day exponential moving average (EMA) at $3,127. This critical level has acted as a strong support, signaling that buyers remain active even amid market uncertainty. For Ethereum to reclaim bullish momentum, the price needs to break above the $3,520 resistance level with conviction. This move would not only reinforce confidence among investors but also pave the way for further upside. Holding above $3,520 is essential for confirming a shift in market sentiment and establishing a foundation for a sustained rally. Related Reading: Bitcoin Reclaims Crucial Liquidity Level No Resistance Left Below ATH As ETH navigates these pivotal levels, traders are closely monitoring its ability to maintain support and generate upward momentum. A successful push above $3,520 could trigger increased buying activity, potentially setting the stage for Ethereum to resume its uptrend. However, failure to clear this resistance could lead to continued consolidation, delaying a potential recovery. For now, all eyes remain on Ethereum as it tests key technical levels in a bid to regain its position as a top-performing asset in the crypto market.
