Ethereum (ETH) has flexed impressive market strength, surging over 5% in the last 24 hours and decisively outperforming Bitcoin in short-term momentum. After finding solid support at $2,550, ETH launched a renewed upward trajectory, bringing new bullish sentiment into the crypto markets. The rally saw ETH climb past key resistance levels at $2,620, $2,650, and $2,720, reaching a session high of $2,787 before entering a brief consolidation phase. As of writing, Ethereum is trading near $2,720, closely aligned with the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average (SMA), signaling potential for further gains.

Technical Signals Favor Bulls

Technical analysis reveals a new bullish trend line forming on the hourly ETH/USD chart with support around $2,610. This trend line acts as a strong base if ETH encounters a minor pullback.

  • Immediate resistance lies near the $2,780 level, followed by a key breakout zone at $2,800.

  • A decisive break above $2,800 could push the price toward $2,840, with further targets at $2,880 and $2,950 in the short term.

  • On the downside, Ethereum holds support at $2,700, with stronger levels around $2,650 and $2,610. A breakdown below these zones could send ETH back toward $2,550 or even $2,500.

Hourly indicators also align with bullish momentum:

  • MACD for ETH/USD is gaining strength in the bullish zone.

  • RSI is now positioned above the 50 mark, reflecting buying pressure and market confidence.

Ethereum's Strength Poses Questions for Bitcoin Dominance

While Bitcoin continues to consolidate, Ethereum’s performance has shifted trader sentiment, indicating a potential altcoin-led mini rally. The breakout is particularly notable as Ethereum continues to gain traction among institutional and retail investors, especially ahead of upcoming ecosystem upgrades.

With ETH showing signs of breaking above short-term resistance levels, investors and traders alike are watching for confirmation that Ethereum can establish itself above $2,800—a move that could redefine near-term price trajectories.
