Ethereum price like many of its peers is struggling to uphold a higher support amid widespread declines. This elevated support area, preferably at $2,000 could determine where ETH price goes after the current consolidation. On the upside, resistance at $2,130 must come down for gains to start increasing toward $2,500 and $3,000. However, losing immediate support could force Ethereum to seek fresh liquidity at lower support levels, for example, in the region between $1,800 and $1,900.
Investors turned their attention to Ethereum after news broke that BlackRock had made the first step toward filing for an ETH spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Although the news directly impacted Ethereum price, other cryptos broke out too, including Bitcoin, which hit a new year-to-date high of $38,000.
Ethereum price although bullish had corrected to trade at $2,032 at the time of writing, on Tuesday during US business hours. A higher support, preferably at $2,000 would go a long way to help sustain the uptrend, but for now, let’s dive into the burgeoning Ethereum assets under management (AUM).
The previous week was extremely eventful for the crypto market, but more especially for Ethereum. In addition to the spot ETF filing, CoinShares latest report indicated that Ethereum AUM inflows rose to $49 million—the highest since August.
Inflows generally increased across the board totaling $293 million, cumulatively “bringing this 7-week run of inflows past the $1 billion mark, leaving year-to-date inflows at $1.14,” the CoinShares report said.
The spike in ETH AUM inflows reinforces the bullish sentiment “likely related to the recent spot-based ETF listing request in the US.”
Ethereum price started the new week in the green, up 8% in the last seven days and 32% in the last month. The resistance at $2,130 was expected, considering it rejected the bulls in April this year.
A minor deep would confirm the strength from support at $2,000 and pave the way for a short consolidation period before Ethereum price triggers another breakout; this time aiming for highs above $3,000.
The path with the least resistance is to the upside based on the bullish thesis flaunted by the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator. As long as the momentum indicator moves higher above the neutral zone and the blue MACD line’s position above the red signal line, traders and investors are likely to continue betting on more gains over the next few weeks.
A couple of bullish crosses further cement the bullish narrative. A golden cross occurs in support of an ongoing uptrend and manifests with a short-term MA crossing above a long-term MA.
In Ethereum’s case, the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) started by crossing above the 100-day EMA ahead of the second one with the 50-EMA flipping above the 200-day EMA.
The last time Ethereum price formed these bullish crosses, it went ahead and surged to $2,130 from the January 2023 low of $1,190. Therefore, the formation of these two patterns is a significant bullish signal.
