Ethereum price trades around $3,300 and continues to move sideways, following Bitcoin’s lead. However, the outlook is optimistic due to a few bullish signals that forecast an uptrend for ETH in 2025. Let’s explore key levels to watch based on technical and on-chain analysis.
Ethereum Price Today
As of January 25, 2025, Ethereum (ETH) trades at $3,300, marking a 0.50% surge in the past 24 hours. Despite the stagnation, the outlook remains bullish due to a few technical signals, including a golden cross (50-period SMA crossing above the 200-period EMA). Additionally, the bullish declining histograms below the zero line continue to recede, suggesting a decline in bearish momentum and a hint that bulls are ready to take over. Lastly, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is also attempting to overcome the mean level of 50, indicating a resurgence of buying momentum.
Key Levels to Watch
While the chart forecast a bullish outlook due to technical indicators, here are some key levels investors need to keep an eye on.
Resistance: $3,592, $3,975, $4,000, $4,069, $4,877, $5,863, $6,947.
Support: $3,132, $3,057, $2,657, $2,341.
Technical Patterns Fuel Optimism
While the technical and key levels are noted, let’s take a look at the daily Ethereum price chart to identify the formation of key patterns.
Falling Wedge
Connecting trend lines to the three lower highs and two lower lows reveals this setup, which forecasts a 17% move to $4,000. The contingency of this $4,000 target is that Ethereum price produces a daily candlestick close above the wedge’s upper trend line.
Elliot Wave Analysis
Elliot Wave analysis forecasts that a bounce around $3,300 to $3,100 is likely. The resulting recovery rally could propel Ethereum price to a new all-time high of $7,000.
On-Chain Metrics & Whale Activity
Although technical patterns, indicators and key levels provide a bias, it is better to confirm this initial bias with on-chain data.
Whale Accumulation
According to Santiment data, Ethereum’s Network added 180,000 new addresses this week, indicating renewed retail and institutional interest.
Furthermore, futures data shows that open interest hit $65B, confirming the renewed interest.
