Ethereum is trading within a tight range that has held for several weeks, 
forming the kind of compression structure that often leads to a significant 
breakout. Despite heightened volatility in global markets driven by escalating 
tensions in the Middle East, ETH has remained resilient, holding strong above 
key demand zones around the $2,500–$2,600 area. The current environment is 
marked by uncertainty, with geopolitical conflict and macroeconomic risks 
weighing on investor sentiment. Yet Ethereum’s price structure suggests that 
bulls are patiently building momentum. Related Reading: Bitcoin Consolidates 
as Realized Profits Stay Low – No Signs Of Major Sell-Off Yet Top analyst Ted 
Pillows shared a technical outlook, pointing out that Ethereum is mirroring 
the same consolidation pattern that Bitcoin followed during its 2017–2021 
cycle. In that historical setup, BTC compressed into a tight range before 
entering a parabolic rally once the upper boundary was broken. If Ethereum 
follows a similar path, the next move could be dramatic, especially if it 
clears major resistance levels like $2,800. As long as ETH holds range support 
and absorbs both upside and downside wicks, this setup remains intact. A 
breakout above the current range could ignite a fresh leg up for Ethereum—and 
possibly spark renewed strength across the altcoin market. Ethereum Builds 
Momentum As Market Awaits Clarity Ethereum is currently trading in a tight 
range, consolidating just above the $2,600 level and holding firm despite 
macroeconomic and geopolitical headwinds. After rallying nearly 80% from its 
April lows, ETH appears to be preparing for a decisive move in the coming 
sessions. However, with escalating tensions between Israel and Iran and 
uncertainty surrounding possible U.S. involvement, broader markets remain 
cautious. Until clarity emerges on the geopolitical front, sideways price 
action may persist. Still, Ethereum’s price structure remains constructive. 
Strong consolidation above key demand zones reflects ongoing buyer interest 
and a lack of heavy selling pressure. This behavior often precedes major 
moves, as investors accumulate ahead of expected volatility. Some market 
participants remain cautious, warning of a possible retrace below the $2,400 
level if demand falters or broader risk sentiment weakens. In contrast, 
bullish analysts like Ted Pillows suggest a more optimistic outlook. According 
to Pillows, Ethereum is closely following the path Bitcoin took during its 
2017–2021 cycle, where tight consolidation ultimately led to a breakout and 
parabolic rally. In this view, ETH’s real explosive phase won’t begin until it 
breaks above $4,000. If this scenario plays out, Ethereum could trigger a 
broader altcoin surge and shift overall crypto market sentiment bullish once 
again. Related Reading: Tron Shows Real Growth: Transaction Volume Soars While

Levels The 3-day Ethereum chart shows a prolonged consolidation phase as ETH 
trades near the $2,500 mark. Despite geopolitical uncertainty and rising 
macroeconomic risks, Ethereum has held above the $2,400 support zone, forming 
a tight range just below the critical resistance at $2,775. This area also 
coincides with the 200-day SMA (red line), which continues to cap upward 
momentum. ETH remains above the 50-day (blue) and 100-day (green) SMAs, 
suggesting bullish momentum is intact, though lacking follow-through. The 
recent candle bodies show decreasing volatility, with wicks on both sides 
being absorbed—a classic sign of compression that often precedes a large move.

Volume has declined slightly compared to the breakout in early May, indicating 
a temporary pause in bullish conviction. However, if Ethereum manages a higher 
close above the $2,775 resistance, it could trigger an impulsive breakout 
targeting the $3,000 level. On the downside, a break below $2,400 would 
invalidate the current structure and expose ETH to a deeper correction toward 
$2,100. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
