The breakdown keeps the technical outlook bearish, while persistently positive funding suggests that bullish positioning has not fully unwound.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"ethereum-price-analysis-the-daily-chart\">Ethereum Price Analysis: The Daily Chart<\/h2>\n<p>The daily chart shows another deterioration in Ethereum\u2019s structure following its earlier breakdown from the ascending channel. The recent rebound toward $2.44K was sharply rejected at the lower edge of the $2.44K\u2013$2.52K supply zone, confirming that sellers remain active on recoveries.<\/p>\n<p>After briefly consolidating around $2.24K, ETH broke decisively beneath the $2.17K\u2013$2.22K demand zone. This area now represents potential resistance on a pullback. Although the latest selloff produced a lower wick toward $2.06K, the subsequent response has yet to recover the broken support or establish a meaningful bullish structure.<\/p>\n<p>If buyers fail to reclaim $2.17K\u2013$2.22K, the risk of another decline remains elevated. The recent $2.06K low is the immediate downside reference, followed by the psychological $2K level and the broader $1.90K\u2013$1.98K daily demand zone. Conversely, sustained acceptance back above $2.22K would weaken the latest breakdown and allow a recovery toward $2.28K\u2013$2.36K.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ETH-D-3.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"eth-usdt-4-hour-chart\">ETH\/USDT 4-Hour Chart<\/h2>\n<p>The four-hour chart highlights a failed breakout above the descending channel. Ethereum briefly surged through the upper boundary and reached the $2.44K supply area before reversing aggressively back inside the pattern. The failure to hold that breakout was followed by consolidation near $2.24K and another strong bearish expansion.<\/p>\n<p>Price is now reacting near the descending channel\u2019s lower boundary around $2.06K\u2013$2.08K. This could support a temporary bounce, but the sequence of lower highs and lower lows remains intact. The marked $2.17K\u2013$2.22K pullback zone is therefore the first important test for any recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Rejection from that zone would reinforce its transition from support into resistance and could lead to another test of the recent lows. A sustained move beneath $2.06K would increase the risk of an extension toward $2K. Alternatively, reclaiming the pullback zone and overcoming the recent consolidation around $2.24K\u2013$2.25K would ease immediate selling pressure, with the channel\u2019s upper boundary near $2.30K becoming the next hurdle.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ETH-4H-3.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1453269\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ETH-4H-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2079\" height=\"1329\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"sentiment-analysis\">Sentiment Analysis<\/h2>\n<p>The funding chart displays the 14-period exponential moving average of Ethereum funding rates across exchanges. The smoothed rate remains positive, meaning longs continue to pay shorts on average despite the persistent price decline.<\/p>\n<p>Following a sharp drop around the beginning of November, the funding average rebounded before turning slightly lower again. This recovery in funding was not accompanied by a sustained price recovery. The divergence suggests that willingness to maintain bullish perpetual futures exposure has persisted even as the spot price has weakened.<\/p>\n<p>Positive funding alone does not establish excessive leverage or guarantee a liquidation event. However, alongside the support breakdown, it points to potential vulnerability among leveraged longs if Ethereum continues lower. A further funding reset could ease that pressure, while a recovery supported by stronger price structure would provide more convincing evidence of improving conditions than positive funding alone.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1453268\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ethereum-price-prediction-is-2k-inevitable-as-eth-crashes-5-again\/\">Ethereum Price Prediction: Is $2K Inevitable as ETH Crashes 5% Again?<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ethereum-price-prediction-is-2k-inevitable-as-eth-crashes-5-again\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ethereum\u2019s decline has extended below the $2.17K\u2013$2.22K support zone, leaving the price near $2.13K.
