The broader market remains cautious as traders reassess their positions following recent volatility, which could lead to a reversal of the bullish trend.<\/p>\n<h2>Technical Analysis<\/h2>\n<p>By Shayan<\/p>\n<h3>The Daily Chart<\/h3>\n<p>On the daily timeframe, ETH recently broke below the midline of its ascending channel, the 100-day moving average, and touched the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement level near $3,400-$3,500. This zone coincides with the previous structure support, triggering a bounce toward $3,800.<\/p>\n<p>However, the RSI is still below 40, showing weak momentum. A daily close back above $4,000 could mark a short-term recovery, but failure to reclaim the channel would likely send ETH below the $3,000 range, which would mean the end of the bull market.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1416032\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1345\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-768x404.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-1536x807.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-2048x1076.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-90x47.jpg 90w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-150x79.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-2000x1051.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-1600x841.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-1400x736.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-1200x631.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-1000x525.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-900x473.jpg 900w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-800x420.jpg 800w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-700x368.jpg 700w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-600x315.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-500x263.jpg 500w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-400x210.jpg 400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-200x105.jpg 200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ETH-Daily-5-100x53.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>The 4-Hour Chart<\/h3>\n<p>The 4-hour chart reveals that Ethereum found temporary support within the $3,400 demand zone after a sharp decline.

This reset indicates fear and liquidation pressure, but could also hint at a potential bottom if the bearish sentiment continues while the price stabilizes. Historically, negative funding rates during deep pullbacks have preceded short-term recoveries once selling momentum fades.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, while the market could be in the early stages of a bearish reversal, there is still hope that this move could just be a flush out to cool off the futures market and pave the way for a spot-driven, sustainable rally.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1416031\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-90x51.jpg 90w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-2000x1125.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-1600x900.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-1400x788.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-1000x563.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-900x506.jpg 900w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-700x394.jpg 700w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ethereum-Funding-Rates-All-Exchanges-100x56.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ethereum-price-analysis-eth-could-drop-below-3k-without-key-recovery\/\">Ethereum Price Analysis: ETH Could Drop Below $3K Without Key Recovery<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ethereum is recovering slightly after a massive drop that took the price below $4,000.
