Ethereum is showing mixed signals on the charts, with analysts watching key technical levels and momentum indicators.<\/p>\n

While downside risks have emerged, other signals suggest possible support near current prices. The asset remains above $3,900, a level that several traders are monitoring as a key zone.<\/p>\n

Bearish Momentum Builds on Weekly MACD<\/h2>\n

Ali Martinez noted that Ethereum is close to a bearish MACD crossover on the weekly timeframe, a pattern that has led to steep price drops in past cycles. The last two times this signal appeared, ETH fell by 43% and 61%. The MACD histogram is also turning lower, pointing to fading momentum.<\/p>\n

Ethereum is trading near $4,000 at press time, down 4% over the past day and 10% on the week. The crossover has not yet been confirmed. If the signal completes, some expect a stronger correction to follow.<\/p>\n

RSI Oversold and Flag Pattern Still Active<\/h2>\n

Tom Tucker noted<\/a> Ethereum’s RSI is sitting at around 16, a level considered deeply oversold. He said, \u201cRSI at 16.25 = heavily oversold territory<\/em>,\u201d adding that rebounds often follow similar readings. Tucker also noted that bearish signals might be drawing in sellers too early.<\/p>\n

Titan of Crypto shared<\/a> a chart showing a bull flag pattern on Ethereum\u2019s weekly chart. The flag follows a sharp rally and is still intact. If the breakout occurs, the pattern points to a move toward $6,700. This is based on the height of the flagpole added to the breakout point.<\/p>\n

Moreover, Martinez also highlighted MVRV Pricing Bands, which track historical deviation from Ethereum’s realized price. ETH is holding above the mean band at $3,900, marking it as a support area.<\/p>\n

If this area holds, the upper pricing bands suggest upside toward $5,000 and $6,000. If it fails, traders may look toward lower zones near $2,800.<\/p>\n

Institutional Demand and Blockchain Use Expanding<\/h2>\n

Bitwise reported<\/a> that 95% of ETH held by public companies was bought in the last quarter. A total of 4.4 million ETH was added, a 1,937% rise compared to the previous quarter. Combined holdings by public firms and ETFs now stand<\/a> at 12.50 million ETH, or 10.31% of the total supply.<\/p>\n

Cipher X said<\/a> Ethereum is becoming the settlement layer of the digital economy. USDC supply is nearing $45 billion, while BlackRock\u2019s BUIDL fund now holds over $2 billion in tokenized US Treasuries. Cipher said both are \u201cgrowing side by side<\/em>\u201d without coordination, powered by market use of Ethereum\u2019s infrastructure.<\/p>\n
