Ethereum continues to bleed slowly below the $3,100 level as overall crypto sentiment remains weak. After breaking down from a local distribution range, ETH has been sliding, with lower highs and lows forming consistently. Despite short-term oversold signals, buyers are still hesitant, and open interest shows a cooling derivatives market with little fresh leverage entering.<\/p>\n

The Daily Chart<\/h3>\n
On the daily timeframe, ETH is trading just above the $3,000 support zone after breaking down from the key $3,500 supply zone. The price is still well below both the 100-day and 200-day moving averages, which confirms the bearish bias for now.<\/p>\n
Momentum has slowed, and RSI sits at 32, hovering around oversold territory. If buyers fail to hold this current support, the next major level sits around $2,600, followed by the $2,100 major low. On the flip side, reclaiming the $3,500 level would be the first sign of strength, but that would need significant volume to back it.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n On the 4-hour chart, ETH remains inside a falling wedge pattern, a structure that typically signals a potential reversal, but so far, there\u2019s no confirmed breakout. The asset is testing the lower trendline of this wedge and trying to hold above the $3,000 zone.<\/p>\n RSI shows a slight bullish divergence, which may result in a short-term relief bounce. But unless a clean breakout above the $3,200 highs occurs with volume, any move could be a fakeout. Overall, the lower highs and lower lows suggest bearish control remains unless proven otherwise.<\/p>\n Open interest has dropped significantly since early November, showing a reduction in leverage across Ethereum markets. From over $30B, it has now come down closer to $18B, aligning with the recent price drop.<\/p>\n This drop indicates traders are de-risking, closing positions, or getting liquidated. That often comes before a volatility spike, which could either be a recovery bounce or a continuation sell-off. Until the open interest experiences a sustained rise with positive price action, momentum is likely to stay muted.<\/p>\n Disclaimer: Information found on CryptoPotato is those of writers quoted.
