Like Bitcoin, Ethereum has faced significant challenges in recent months, struggling to sustain any significant price growth. After peaking above $4,000 in March, Ethereum has fallen steadily, unable to break out of this bearish trend.
The second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization has seen its price drop by over 5.9% over the past two weeks so far and is still hovering around $2,400. Currently trading at $2,434, Ethereum is down 2.4% over the past week and 0.4% over the past 24 hours.
Is a rebound to $4,000 just around the corner?
Despite this decline, market analysts remain sanguine about a potential recovery. According to a recent fasting According to “The Moon” on X, Ethereum could be poised to return to $4,000 — if certain technical conditions are met.
Specifically, The Moon highlighted Ethereum’s current 1D Falling Wedge formation, a common chart pattern in technical analysis that often indicates a potential reversal. The analyst stated, “Once the breakout occurs, there is a high probability that Ethereum will return to $4k.”
By comparison, in technical analysis, a falling wedge is a pattern where the asset price is moving in a downtrend but within a narrowing range.
This pattern usually suggests that the downside momentum is fading, and if the price breaks above the wedge, a reversal could occur. This is exactly what The Moon is predicting for Ethereum — a potential breakout could lead to a return to previous highs.
