Ethereum Price Analysis: ETH/USD is ready to break from the triangle pattern

  • ETH/USD has recovered from the intraday low and bumped into an upper line of a triangle pattern.
  • A move above $210.00 will increase upside momentum with the next focus on $220.00.

ETH/USD is changing hands at $209.76. The second-largest digital asset has recovered from the intraday low of $202.14 and gained over 2% since the beginning of the day. Ethereum is moving within a short-term bullish trend amid high volatility. The coin’s market capitalization is registered at $23.3 billion, while an average daily trading volume is set at $19 billion. 

ETH/USD: Technical picture

On the intraday charts, ETH/USD cleared the resistance created by 4-hour SMA100 at $208.00; however, it is still below psychological $210.00. The price stopped short of the upper line of a triangle pattern that separates us from and extended recovery towards $215.00 guarded by the upper line of the 4-hour Bollinger Band, and the recent high $227.35. Considering the upward-looking RSI, the upside breakthrough looks likely at this stage. 

On the downside, the local support is created by the above-said 4-hour SMA50. Once it is out of the way, the sell-off is likely to gain traction with the next focus on the intraday low on approach to $202.14. It is closely followed by psychological $200.00 and the upside trend line at $198.30 reinforced by 4-hour SMA100.

XRP approaches key support as risk-off sentiment deepens
Ripple (XRP) is trading at $1.06 on Monday, maintaining its position within a broader bearish trend. The token’s technical outlook continues to deteriorate, pressured by declining retail participation. Appetite for risk assets remains lethargic, as reflected in the Fear & Greed Index, which is embedded in the Fear territory at 28.
Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP extend decline amid renewed risk-averse sentiment
The cryptocurrency market remains weak on Monday, with Bitcoin (BTC) falling toward the nearest $62,000. Ethereum (ETH) and Ripple (XRP) reflect the sell-off across altcoins, edging lower toward $1,800 and $1.05, respectively. Risk appetite remains subdued, as the Fear & Greed Index holds steady at 28, deep within Fear territory.
The Bitcoin futures yield collapse: Once over 20%, now less than Treasury notes
Once a goldmine for carry traders, Bitcoin futures have flipped, consistently underperforming plain‑vanilla U.S. Treasuries every month since February. Carry trades consistently yielded 20% or more across regulated and unregulated crypto exchanges during the 2021 bull market. The strategy involved shorting Bitcoin futures while simultaneously buying a spot exchange-traded fund (ETF).
The crypto market is moving in the opposite direction to equities
The crypto market’s market capitalisation has fallen by 1% over the past 24 hours, returning to levels last seen in mid-July. The positive momentum the market showed in the first half of last week failed to take hold. Once again, we are seeing a negative correlation with the Nasdaq 100 index, this time in the form of falling cryptocurrencies while shares rise. Could this be becoming the new norm?
Bitcoin: Bulls hold the line
Bitcoin (BTC) edges slightly lower, trading at $64,300 at the time of writing on Friday but holding firmly above a key support zone. US-listed spot Bitcoin Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) support BTC as they continued to attract institutional flows through Thursday, pointing to the fourth consecutive week of net inflows.
