$ETH At 9 AM Eastern Time, the value of Ether was $4,521 as of August 26, 2025, with a market capitalization of $533 billion and a trading volume of $49.52 billion over the past 24 hours.

Intraday price movement ranged from $4,341 to $4,667, reflecting increased volatility and bringing the asset closer to a key support zone.

============/

On the daily chart, Ether has demonstrated a clear upward trend from approximately $3,350 to a recent high of $4,957.1, followed by a sharp pullback to the $4,400 level.

Price action indicates a distribution phase marked by significant selling volume after a peak. The $4,400 level becomes critical support; a bullish reversal pattern, such as an engulfing candle or a hammer candle with increasing volume, could confirm a new long position. The nearest resistance is in the range of $4,650 to $4,700, near the previous support zone that has turned into resistance.

===========

On the 4-hour chart of Ether, it is evident that ETH made a sharp rally from $4,205 to $4,957.1 over a short period, likely driven by news.

However, the sequence of lower highs and lows since then has defined the price structure, with a bearish engulfing candle indicating continued downward pressure.

Support is consolidating around $4,400. A developing bullish divergence at this level, especially if selling volume weakens, could provide a short-term long setup. Caution is warranted below $4,400, as a breakout could push the asset towards the $4,200 zone.

==========

A clear downward trend has formed on the hourly chart of Ethereum, from $4,776.6 to a recent low of $4,310.3. The current price movement is in a narrow consolidation range between $4,400 and $4,450, which may resolve as either bullish accumulation or a bearish continuation flag. A breakout above $4,460 on increased volume would indicate a move towards the $4,550–$4,600 area. Conversely, a breakout below $4,400, especially if $4,310 is breached, would negate bullish setups and reinforce the prevailing bearish structure.

=========

Bullish verdict:

If Ether holds support in the range of $4,400 to $4,500 with strengthening volume and confirms a reversal on the daily or 4-hour chart, technical indicators favor a bullish continuation towards the resistance zone of $4,600–$4,700.

Strengthening momentum above key moving averages and long-term bullish signals suggest that buyers remain in control — provided that short-term volatility does not break below $4,310.

===========

Bearish verdict:

Failure to hold support at the key level of $4,400, especially with a decisive move below $4,310, would confirm bearish momentum and open the door for a potential pullback to $4,200 or lower.

As the MACD signals a sell and the short-term trend weakens, Ether remains vulnerable if buyers do not gain control quickly.
