Ethereum’s attempt to regain bullish momentum has hit a roadblock, as the price failed to break through the crucial $2,160 resistance level. After showing signs of recovery, ETH faced strong selling pressure at this key level, preventing a sustained breakout and disappointing bullish traders who were hoping for further upside.
Its inability to push past this resistance suggests that bears are still in control, keeping Ethereum’s price under pressure. With the momentum fading and the market sentiment turning cautious, traders are now closely watching key support zones to determine the next move.
Bearish Pressure Mounts: What’s Next For Ethereum?
Ethereum is facing increasing downside pressure as its latest recovery attempt was rejected at the $2,160 resistance level. The failed breakout has reinforced bearish sentiment, with key technical indicators signaling weakness. If buyers fail to step in, ETH could be at risk of deeper declines in the near term.
One of the major warning signs is weak volume during the recovery attempt. A strong breakout typically requires significant buying interest, but Ethereum’s rally lacked momentum, making it easier for sellers to regain control. This lack of conviction from bulls suggests that the upside move was not sustainable, allowing bears to push prices lower.
Additionally, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has broken down, moving below key thresholds that indicate weakening bullish strength. The current declining RSI shows that buying pressure is fading, making it difficult for Ethereum to build upward momentum. If the RSI continues trending downward, it could further confirm a prolonged bearish phase.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) has also turned negative, with a breakdown below the signal line and a widening gap between the MACD and its moving average. This crossover indicates that bearish momentum is accelerating, reducing the chances of an immediate recovery. When combined with other bearish signals, the MACD breakdown further supports the case for a continued downside.
Looking ahead, ETH may retest key support zones. However, a strong bounce from lower levels could offer bulls another chance to regain lost ground. For now, the charts suggest that Ethereum remains vulnerable to further declines.
Support Levels To Watch: Can Bulls Prevent Further Decline?
With attention now turning to key support levels, the first major support to watch is around $1,523, a level that previously acted as a short-term demand zone. If Ethereum holds above this area, it might provide bulls with a foundation for another rebound attempt. However, a break below this level could signal growing bearish dominance, increasing the risk of deeper losses.
Below $1,523, the next key support lies at $902, aligning with previous price reactions and acting as a psychological level for traders. A failure to hold here may accelerate selling pressure, pushing ETH toward other support below.

My name is Godspower Owie, and I was born and brought up in Edo State, Nigeria. I grew up with my three siblings who have always been my idols and mentors, helping me to grow and understand the way of life.
My parents are literally the backbone of my story. They’ve always supported me in good and bad times and never for once left my side whenever I feel lost in this world. Honestly, having such amazing parents makes you feel safe and secure, and I won’t trade them for anything else in this world.
I was exposed to the cryptocurrency world 3 years ago and got so interested in knowing so much about it. It all started when a friend of mine invested in a crypto asset, which he yielded massive gains from his investments.
When I confronted him about cryptocurrency he explained his journey so far in the field. It was impressive getting to know about his consistency and dedication in the space despite the risks involved, and these are the major reasons why I got so interested in cryptocurrency.
Trust me, I’ve had my share of experience with the ups and downs in the market but I never for once lost the passion to grow in the field. This is because I believe growth leads to excellence and that’s my goal in the field. And today, I am an employee of Bitcoinnist and NewsBTC news outlets.
My Bosses and co-workers are the best kinds of people I have ever worked with, in and outside the crypto landscape. I intend to give my all working alongside my amazing colleagues for the growth of these companies.
Sometimes I like to picture myself as an explorer, this is because I like visiting new places, I like learning new things (useful things to be precise), I like meeting new people – people who make an impact in my life no matter how little it is.
One of the things I love and enjoy doing the most is football. It will remain my favorite outdoor activity, probably because I’m so good at it. I am also very good at singing, dancing, acting, fashion and others.
I cherish my time, work, family, and loved ones. I mean, those are probably the most important things in anyone’s life. I don’t chase illusions, I chase dreams.
I know there is still a lot about myself that I need to figure out as I strive to become successful in life. I’m certain I will get there because I know I am not a quitter, and I will give my all till the very end to see myself at the top.
I aspire to be a boss someday, having people work under me just as I’ve worked under great people. This is one of my biggest dreams professionally, and one I do not take lightly. Everyone knows the road ahead is not as easy as it looks, but with God Almighty, my family, and shared passion friends, there is no stopping me.
