On the other hand, certain on-chain indicators suggest that the bulls might regain control in the near future.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"plunge-on-the-way\">Plunge on the Way?<\/h2>\n<p>According to X user Ted, the asset is \u201clooking weak\u201d right now. He <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TedPillows\/status\/2048689609333465108\" target=\"_blank\">claimed<\/a> that Bitcoin has reclaimed its key level, while the second-largest cryptocurrency keeps getting rejected from the $2,400 resistance zone.<\/p>\n<p>The analyst added that the major support zone for ETH is around $2,200-$2,250 and claimed that a drop to that range won\u2019t be a surprise before a rebound forms.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to that, Ted has been paying attention to the asset\u2019s sideways movement lately. He predicted that this week would be \u201cvery crucial\u201d for the market, citing uncertainty surrounding the ongoing <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/liquidations-surge-as-bitcoin-price-pumps-and-dumps-on-us-iran-deal-reports\/\">peace talks<\/a> between the USA and Iran.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cIf Ethereum manages to reclaim the $2,400 level, it\u2019ll tap the $2,470-$2,500 liquidity. And if it loses the $2,300 zone, a retest of the $2,150-$2,200 support level will happen quickly,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Crypto Tony \u2013 a popular trader with almost 600,000 followers on X \u2013 also weighed in, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoTony__\/status\/2048650853389906342\" target=\"_blank\">saying<\/a> they await a plunge to the support level of around $2,290, which could offer the opportunity for opening a possible long position.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-indicators-point-in-a-different-direction\">The Indicators Point in a Different Direction<\/h2>\n<p>Contrary to the aforementioned skepticism, several metrics suggest that ETH could be on the verge of a price rally. First on the list is the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which has dropped to 30. This means that the asset has entered oversold territory and could be due for an upward move.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"you-may-also-like\" class=\"heading-4\">You may also like:<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1435546\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1435546\" style=\"width: 2183px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ETH-RSI-2.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1435546\" src=\"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=9999\" alt=\"ETH RSI\" width=\"2183\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=857 857w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=300,h=55 300w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=768,h=141 768w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=90,h=16 90w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=150,h=27 150w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=800,h=147 800w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=700,h=128 700w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=600,h=110 600w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=500,h=92 500w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=400,h=73 400w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=200,h=37 200w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/b6f343cb-9645-43dc-ddc6-5dcdad537800\/w=100,h=18 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2183px) 100vw, 2183px\"\/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1435546\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">ETH RSI, Source: RSI Hunter<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Next is the declining amount of ETH stored on exchanges.
