ETH is trading near $2,478 with a 24-hour change of +0.84% and a 7-day gain of +10.66%. The model assigns a 64% probability to the bullish scenario versus 30% for bearish. Golden cross signals remain active on 1d and 4h, while a 1h Bollinger squeeze suggests range expansion may follow.

Ethereum is trading around $2,478.19 with a market capitalization of $302,358,715,290 and 24-hour volume of $9,244,825,938. The asset remains about 49.90% below its all-time high, but far above its all-time low.

Technical picture

On the daily timeframe, the structure remains constructive. Price is above the EMA20 ($2,370.53), EMA50 ($2,178.66), EMA100 ($2,086.57), and EMA200 ($2,237.92). Daily RSI is 64.02, holding above the midpoint, which may support a bullish scenario. At the same time, the MACD histogram is negative (-13.85), suggesting momentum may be cooling somewhat within a broader positive trend.

On the 4-hour chart, ETH still shows a balanced bullish structure. A golden cross is in place, RSI stands at 53.16, and MACD histogram remains positive, although lower than the previous reading. That may imply upside is still intact, but acceleration could be moderating.

The 1-hour chart is more mixed. RSI is 44.43, MACD histogram is negative, and the “price down on rising volume” signal points to short-term pressure. However, a 1h golden cross is still active, and the Bollinger bandwidth at 0.0174 reflects a squeeze, meaning a range expansion may follow if price breaks beyond nearby boundaries.

Support and resistance

In the short term, the main 1h support sits at $2,448.05-$2,458.90. The nearest 1h major resistance is $2,481.74-$2,493.57. Since current price is very close to that resistance zone, the market may either attempt a breakout or rotate back toward lower support.

On 4h, an important support zone is $2,405.97-$2,432.32, while major resistance stands at $2,529.84-$2,546.78. On the daily chart, notable support comes in at $2,356.41-$2,423.75, while the main resistance is much higher at $3,045.78-$3,099.

On the weekly timeframe, ETH is near the upper edge of support at $2,357.59-$2,464.91 and still below the major resistance zone at $2,717.32-$2,879.22. In a medium-term scenario, a move toward that weekly resistance area could become an important trend test.

Market context

ETH dominance stands at 11.22%, and ETH market structure is labeled as a strong uptrend. Over the last 30 days, ETH has gained 29.43%, above BTC’s 22.89% 30-day change and alongside alt vs BTC 30-day relative strength of 6.55%. That may indicate relative outperformance over the past month.

Scenario view

The model assigns 64% to the bullish scenario, 6% to neutral, and 30% to bearish. If ETH holds above the $2,448-$2,459 area and clears the $2,481-$2,494 zone, price could test the 4h resistance at $2,529.84-$2,546.78. If short-term weakness deepens instead, focus may shift to the $2,405.97-$2,432.32 and $2,356.41-$2,423.75 support areas.
