Technical Analysis of the ETH/USD Chart

the red channel illustrates Ethereums price dynamics;
blue markers highlight key interaction points between the price and channel lines (boundaries and median), reinforcing the channels relevance.
Applying the theory of cyclical fluctuations and market pendulum dynamicspopularised by Howard Marks in Mastering the Market Cyclewe can assume:
when ETH surged above the channels upper boundary in December 2024, driven partly by optimism surrounding Trumps election victory, the market pendulum accumulated significant energy for the next movement (which appears to be the decline seen since early 2025);
now, the pendulum is nearing its lower point (where an assets price falls below its intrinsic value). Therefore, the next movement could be an upward shift towards the median, which currently sits around $2,500.
