ETH is consolidating, waiting for direction choice

"Fluctuation is the market's breath, and also a breeding ground for opportunities—when $2505 becomes the last defense for bulls, the starry sky at $2700 has already reserved seats for breakouts."

1. Technical Aspect: Bull-bear contest within the oscillating box

  1. Price Structure

    • Currently, ETH is oscillating around the $2505-2627 range, forming a typical 'rectangle consolidation' pattern. Trading volume has not significantly increased, indicating a stalemate between bulls and bears.

    • Key Signal: If it effectively breaks through $2627 (resistance level), it may trigger a 'rectangle breakout' trend, targeting $2800-3000; if it breaks below $2505 (support level), be cautious of a pullback to the psychological level of $2400.

  2. Indicator Resonance

    • Moving Average System: MA5 and MA20 are sticky, MA60 ($2480) forms medium-term support, suggesting that after short-term direction choice, it may trigger medium-term trend following.

    • MACD Indicator: The dual lines are parallel near the zero axis, showing no divergence signals, confirming the oscillating pattern; RSI median at 52, market sentiment is neutral, with no overbought or oversold pressure.

2. News Aspect: Dual drive of policy and technology

  1. Regulatory Policy Orientation

    • The US (GENIUS Act) will bring stablecoins under strict regulation, requiring a 1:1 peg to dollar assets and banning algorithmic stablecoins. This move benefits compliant stablecoins like USDT and USDC, while Ethereum, as the main public chain for stablecoin issuance (accounting for 90% of the global share), has long-term value endorsed by policy.

    • EU MiCA Act restricts non-euro stablecoin payments, which may accelerate the issuance of euro stablecoins on Ethereum, expanding usage scenarios.

  2. Technical Upgrade Catalyst

    • Shanghai Upgrade Staking New Regulations: After the upgrade in March, staked ETH can be redeemed early, with the staking rate possibly soaring to 40%, reducing market circulation. If the staking volume exceeds 50 million, it will create a 'deflationary effect', pushing up prices.

    • Blob Fee Mechanism: Data availability fees have become the core of L2 network competition, with the TVL of L2 projects like Arbitrum and Optimism surging, driving up the demand for ETH as a gas fee token.

  3. Institutional Trends Under Currents

    • Although Grayscale has not directly increased its ETH holdings, by investing in AI + blockchain projects like Filecoin and Ethena, it suggests that institutions are building an 'Ethereum ecosystem portfolio'.

    • The Japanese listed company Metaplanet continues to increase its BTC holdings, with the ETH/BTC exchange rate at a historical low of 0.018. If BTC breaks through $110,000, ETH may see a corrective rally.

3. K-line Judge · Written for determination: The end of fluctuation, a change is imminent

  1. Short-term (1-3 days): Rectangle consolidation enters the 10th trading day, volatility has compressed to an extreme, combined with the rising expectation of a Federal Reserve rate cut in June, the probability of an upward breakout is 65%.

  2. Medium-term (1-2 weeks): If it breaks through $2627, pay attention to the historical pressure at $2800; if it breaks below $2505, be cautious of 'false breakout' traps, with $2400 as the lifeline for bulls.

  3. Core Contradiction: The technical aspect needs a catalyst from policy or funds to ignite. Focus on tonight's Federal Reserve official speech and changes in Ethereum staking data.

4. K-line Judge: Supreme Unique Strategy: Responding to different scenarios, strictly controlling risks

  1. Breakthrough at $2627 (Bullish Strategy)

    • Lightly positioned for long: Enter around $2630, stop loss at $2590 (risk of $30), first target $2750, second target $2880.

    • Leverage Suggestion: Contract traders should use 2-3x leverage and avoid heavy positions at highs.

  2. Break below $2505 (Bearish Strategy)

    • Mainly wait and see: If there is a rapid drop below $2500, confirm whether it is a 'false breakout'. You can wait to buy near $2450, with a stop loss at $2400.

    • Spot Operation: Gradually increase positions; $2400-2500 range is a golden pit.

  3. Continued fluctuations (Swing Strategy)

    • Grid Trading: In the $2505-2627 range, every $30 is a grid, high sell and low buy, with a take-profit point set at $2600.

    • Options Hedge: Buy $2500 put option + $2650 call option, cost is controllable.
