Currently, ETH is testing this key level after a recent sell-off, with mixed signals from price action and on-chain metrics. The daily chart indicates a bearish structure, while the 4-hour chart shows a possible short-term rebound. On-chain analysis reveals a declining Exchange Supply Ratio, suggesting long-term accumulation despite recent price drops. Overall, the market remains cautious as traders monitor these critical levels. Ethereum is currently attempting to stabilize after the recent sell-off that pushed prices below key levels. While the bullish trend structure hasn’t been fully broken on higher timeframes, both price action and on-chain metrics are showing mixed signals that traders should closely monitor.Technical Analysis By ShayanThe Daily Chart On the daily chart, ETH has lost the midline of its ascending channel, breaking below the dotted trendline that had supported the price since August. The asset is now testing the $4,000 key level, which aligns closely with the lower boundary of the channel and the 100-day moving average located around the $3,800 level. The RSI has also dipped near the oversold region but has rebounded slightly and is now hovering around 40, hinting at a possible local bottom if buyers step in with volume. However, if the asset breaks below the $4,000 level, a deeper drop toward the $3.5K range could be expected, which would officially put the market in a downtrend situation. The 4-Hour Chart On the 4-hour chart, ETH shows signs of a short-term rebound after reaching the purple demand zone around $3,850. The price bounced quite sharply from this zone and is now consolidating just below $4K. This move forms a potential short-term bottom, especially since RSI has exited oversold territory and is now trending up. That said, the structure remains bearish as long as ETH stays below $4,200 level. If buyers can reclaim that level, momentum could shift back in favor of a bullish move. Otherwise, a drop toward the $3,500 area would be very probable in the coming weeks. Onchain Analysis Exchange Supply Ratio On the on-chain data front, Ethereum’s Exchange Supply Ratio continues to trend downward, now sitting at its lowest point in years, near 0.13. This shows that a declining portion of the total ETH supply is held on centralized exchanges, suggesting a strong long-term accumulation trend. Historically, this has been a bullish signal, as it means fewer tokens are readily available for selling. However, this accumulation trend contrasts with the recent price action. While fewer ETH are sitting on exchanges, the price still dropped sharply, possibly due to short-term leverage wipeouts or broader market sentiment. In any case, this metric supports the idea that long-term holders remain confident, and unless we see a sudden reversal in exchange inflows, the macro bullish structure stays intact. ### Related Stocks - [ETHE.US - Grayscale Ethereum Staking ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHE.US.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | 13:13 ETPolygon, Ethena, and Nethermind Join the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance as Institutional Ethereum Takes Shape | The Enterprise Ethereum Alliance has welcomed Polygon Labs, Ethena, and Nethermind as new members, enhancing Ethereum's | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275644258.md) | | Ethereum is more popular than ever.
