Breaking this level would confirm Ethereum’s bullish momentum and set the stage for potential new all-time highs, aligning with broader market optimism.
ETH consolidates above $3,000
Ethereum is trading at $3,180, following a recent push to a local high of $3,250. After a strong weekend rally, price took a break, hinting at the need for consolidation before another potential breakout.

Key technical levels show that bullish sentiment is likely to strengthen if ETH maintains its position above $2,950, aligned with the 200-day moving average (MA). Maintaining this critical support level would mean buyers remain in control, setting ETH up for a potential rally towards $3,500 soon.
