The asset is currently trapped between the 100-day MA at $3.3K and the 200-day MA at $3K.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, ETH encountered strong buying pressure near the $3K support zone, leading to a significant rebound. This reaction suggests a strong presence of buyers defending this level.<\/p>\n<p>However, for a successful breakout above the $3.5K mark, Ethereum requires increased buying activity and bullish momentum. The upcoming price action within this range will be crucial in defining Ethereum\u2019s mid-term trajectory, with both bulls and bears poised for a potential breakout.<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-D-2-1-scaled.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-381196\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-D-2-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1307\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-D-2-1-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-D-2-1-300x153.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-D-2-1-1024x523.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-D-2-1-768x392.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-D-2-1-1536x784.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-D-2-1-2048x1046.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-D-2-1-50x26.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>The 4-Hour Chart<\/h3>\n<p>On the 4-hour timeframe, Ethereum is consolidating within a descending wedge pattern. The price recently bounced from the wedge\u2019s lower boundary at $3K, aligning with the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level \u2014reinforcing this area as a strong support zone.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, Ethereum is trading within the tight $3K-$3.3K range, approaching the narrowing end of the wedge pattern. A breakout from this zone is imminent, and the direction will be crucial in determining the market\u2019s next major trend. Given the market conditions, a bullish breakout above this pattern could trigger a rally toward the $4K threshold in the mid-term.<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-4H-2-1-scaled.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-381195\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-4H-2-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1307\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-4H-2-1-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-4H-2-1-300x153.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-4H-2-1-1024x523.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-4H-2-1-768x392.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-4H-2-1-1536x784.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-4H-2-1-2048x1046.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ETH-4H-2-1-50x26.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Onchain Analysis<\/h2>\n<p>By <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/shayan-navabi-522107248\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">Shayan<\/a><\/p>\n<p>While ETH has shown early signs of recovery, market participants are closely monitoring the likelihood of a breakout above the current price range. The key question remains whether the cryptocurrency can generate enough momentum to breach the critical $3.5K resistance level.<\/p>\n<p>The funding rates metric, a crucial indicator of market sentiment, has recently declined, suggesting that the market is no longer overheated. This cooling-off phase indicates that excessive leverage has been reduced, creating room for a potential sustained rally if demand in the spot market increases.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, funding rates have started to rise slightly alongside Ethereum\u2019s price rebound. This subtle shift hints at growing bullish momentum in the perpetual futures market. However, for a decisive breakout above the $3.5K threshold, the funding rates metric must increase further, signaling heightened optimism and an influx of long positions. If demand continues to grow, ETH could be poised for a significant rally in the coming days.<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-6-scaled.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-381197\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-6-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-6-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-6-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-6-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-6-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-6-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-6-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-6-50x28.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ethereum-price-analysis-eth-gears-up-for-a-big-move-will-it-break-past-3-5k\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Ethereum Price Analysis: ETH Gears Up for a Big Move, Will it Break Past $3.5K?<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ethereum sellers have struggled to push the asset below the crucial $3K support for months, while recent price action suggests a bullish rebound.
