While Ethereum (ETH) retests a key level for the first time this month, some 
market watchers have advised caution, warning that the start of a new bull run 
may not be here yet. Related Reading: XRP Leads Crypto Funds $224M Rebound 
With Largest Weekly Inflows Since December No Ethereum Party Until This 
happens After jumping nearly 10%, Ethereum is attempting to reclaim a crucial 
area that has served as a major resistance zone since the early February 
crash. Over the past two months, the King of Altcoins has been trading 
sideways, hovering between the $1,800-$2,200 levels. As the altcoin breaks 
past the $2,150-$2,200 area, some market observers cautioned investors not to 
celebrate yet, arguing that ETH has failed to hold this level despite multiple 
retests during this period. Analyst Ted Pillows affirmed that as long as 
Ethereum holds above the $2,200 level, it could make a move towards last 
month’s top, around the $2,400 area, but warned investors not to “mistake it 
for the start of a bull run,” suggesting that new lows will come between Q2 
and Q3 2026. Similarly, market watcher Crypto Scient advised investors not to 
“confuse positioning with guessing,” explaining that the cryptocurrency hasn’t 
broken out of its macro downtrend, which began last October. According to the 
chart, Ethereum is currently near the macro trend resistance while still 
respecting a Lower High (LH) structure. To him, this is “where most people 
front-run and get chopped.” Scient argued that even if the bottom is on and 
ETH’s bull run has begun, “the money won’t be made under this trend. It will 
be made once the price is above it.” Nonetheless, the price needs to break 
above the trend, flip it into support, and show acceptance above it before 
investors can call a true reversal. “Until that happens, this is just another 
retest in a downtrend,” he asserted. Key Levels To Watch Ali Martinez shared 
“the ultimate accumulation zones” for Ethereum, outlining some potential 
scenarios for its price. In the first case, the cryptocurrency could be 
trading in a multi-year ascending triangle, with the $1,800 level being the 
“line in the sand.” As he explained, this price point serves as the triangle’s 
hypotenuse and, if it holds, could trigger a rally toward the $4,900 x-axis. 
This level also aligns “almost perfectly” with the 0.80 MVRV Pricing Band, 
located around the $1,880 area. The 0.80 band “has been a reliable indicator 
of cycle bottoms,” as it has historically marked where sellers exhaust 
themselves, and “Strong Hands” take over, Martinez highlighted. Meanwhile, in 
the second scenario, Ethereum could be moving within a parallel channel, 
risking another 30%-50% correction toward the channel lows between 
$1,150-$1,170. Martinez emphasized that the UTXO Realized Price Distribution 
(URPD) reveals massive clusters of ETH were bought between $2,079 and $1,882. 
The URPD also shows that below $1,880, the most significant buy-walls sit at 
$1,584, $1,238, and $1,089, meaning that if the February lows are lost, the 
price would visit those levels. Related Reading: Bitcoin Next Big Move In Mid- 
April? Analyst Explains Why ‘Decision Time’ Could Be Near “While accumulation 
happens in the $1,000s, the ‘Start Engine’ for the next major rally is the 
Realized Price at $2,500,” the analyst noted, adding that whenever Ethereum 
reclaims its Realized Price, it has historically signified that the average 
holder is back in profit and the “cooling period” has finalized. “A clean 
break and hold above $2,500 is my primary trigger for the beginning of a new 
macro bull rally,” Martinez concluded. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart
