Ethereum Exchange Inflows Signal Shift: Whales Reduce Selling Pressure
Ethereum is trading around the $2,150 level as volatility persists across the broader cryptocurrency market, reflecting a phase of uncertainty following recent price swings. While the asset has managed to stabilize near current levels, momentum remains fragile, with traders closely monitoring whether demand can sustain a recovery or if further downside pressure will emerge. From a structural perspective, ETH remains in a downtrend across multiple timeframes. Price is still trading below the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, all of which are sloping downward. This alignment confirms that broader market momentum remains bearish, with rallies likely facing resistance at these dynamic levels.Related Reading
The recent bounce from sub-$2,000 levels suggests short-term relief, but the recovery lacks strong continuation. The rejection near the short-term moving average indicates that buyers are not yet strong enough to reclaim higher levels decisively. Volume analysis supports this view, with the largest spikes occurring during the sell-off phase, pointing to capitulation rather than accumulation.
In the near term, the $2,100–$2,200 range acts as a pivot zone. A sustained move above this area could open the door for a test of $2,400. However, failure to hold current levels would likely expose ETH to another retest of the recent lows, keeping downside risks elevated.
