The near-term trend in Ethereum price is sideways evidenced by a new lower high formation at $3975 in late May. This reversal indicates the overhead supply is high from market sellers and ETH buyers would need time to recuperate its momentum.
Connecting the overhead peaks with a trendline reveals a potential triangle formation as the altcoin has also received dynamic support from an ascending trendline since October 2023.
The Ethereum price currently trades at $3389 and holds a market cap of $407.3 Billion. If the supply pressure persists, the coin price could plunge another 5% to seek support at the long-coming trendline.
The renewed buying pressure from the trendline could uplift the asset by 14-15% and challenge the triangle’s upper boundary at $3860. A bullish breakout from the triangle pattern will signal a better confirmation of uptrend continuation.

Ethereum’s price performance in July has exhibited a mix of gains and declines over the past several years, reflecting the broader market’s volatility and investor sentiment. The biggest gain was +56.62% in 2022, while the largest drop was -27.29% in 2017.
On average, July has a positive return of +6.95%, though the median return is -4.41%, indicating mixed performance.
However, with the ongoing development around U.S-listed Ethereum ETFs, anticipated to launch around mid-July, the odds strongly lean on buyers’ favor.
