Highlights

- The ETH price reverted above 50% indicating the buyers continue to hold a firm grip over this asset.

For over a week, the second largest cryptocurrency Ethereum has been trading sideways trying to sustain above the combined support of $2875 and 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level. Despite stable support and the completion of the fourth Bitcoin halving, the ETH price witnessed a modest upswing to $3144 this weekend registering a 9.5% jump.

ETH Stands Strong Above Fibonacci Support
Amid the pre-halving consolidation in the crypto market, the Ethereum price prevented its correction below the $2875 level. This horizontal level aligned with the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level created suitable support for buyers to regain trend control.
This healthy retracement amid the Bitcoin halving uplifted the ETH price to a high of $3198. An analysis of the 4-hour chart shows this upswing as the formation of a double bottom pattern— a technical setup often located at the downtrend bottom and potential for higher rally.
Moreover, On-chain data provided by Lookonchain reveals a noteworthy Ethereum whale transaction. Recently, 10,119 ETH were withdrawn from Binance, marking yet another substantial move by this investor, who has amassed 127,388 ETH since April 8, equivalent to roughly $405.19 million. The whale’s average purchase price of $3,172 per ETH suggests a long-term optimistic view of Ethereum’s market potential.
Thus, if the bullish momentum persists, the ETH price may breach the $3300 neckline resistance, bolstering buyers to prolong recovery. The post-breakout may drive the asset to $3730.followed by $4100.
