Earlier last week, the Ethereum price was retracing severely, giving up a fraction of the gains garnered from the previous bull rally. Despite this brief show of weakness, a crypto pundit forecasts that the leading altcoin may be on the brink of an explosive rally toward a new all-time high of $9,000. This bullish projection is based on the completion of a Broadening Wedge formation and an ongoing retest of the pattern’s upper boundary, which may now act as support. 

Ethereum Price Chart Signals Major Breakout

According to the new technical analysis released by crypto market expert Gert van Lagen on X social media, Ethereum could be gearing up for a major breakout move, with price action potentially targeting upper bullish levels around $9,000. This report is based on a key chart pattern, the Descending Broadening Wedge, which has historically proven to be a powerful bullish continuation setup.

On the weekly timeframe, Ethereum has completed a breakout above the upper resistance of the long-standing Descending Broadening Wedge pattern. After its initial breakout attempt, Lagen notes that Ethereum is now retesting the former resistance trendline, which has flipped into potential support. This retest is considered critical, with the analyst highlighting it as ETH’s second attempt to break higher while sustaining its bullish momentum.

The technical setup, as outlined by Lagen’s price chart, shows a projected upside of 79% from the breakout point, which could send Ethereum soaring toward the $9,000 level. Lagen highlights that statistically, such patterns resolve upward 67% of the time, reinforcing ETH’s bullish outlook. 

The price zone also aligns with a historical sell line—an area where traders may begin taking profits as the cryptocurrency approaches upper targets. Interestingly, Lagen notes that the Bitcoin price has previously formed a similar Descending Broadening Wedge structure. At the time, the analyst had predicted that a successful retest of the pattern’s upper boundary could trigger a massive surge to $230,000 for Bitcoin. This historical parallel reinforces the belief that Ethereum could be on the verge of a similar upward trajectory if the current retest confirms support. 

Analyst Sees ETH Surpassing $5,000 This August

Despite ETH’s brief pullback, August is shaping up to be a potentially explosive month for the leading altcoin. Market expert, ‘Crypto GEMs’ on X, predicts that Ethereum will break past $5,000 before the month is over. The analyst’s technical chart shows a strong bullish setup forming after Ethereum’s brief price correction.

Currently, ETH is trading around $3,554 following a steep drop from its July highs of around $3,900. While this decline may appear concerning to some, Crypto GEMs sees it as a golden buying opportunity. The analyst encourages traders to take advantage of lower prices and “buy the dip”, as ETH positions for its next potential leg up.

Crypto analyst Crypto Bullet has alluded to a technical pattern for Ethereum, which mirrors its 2019/2020 price action. Based on the similarities, the analyst gave a breakdown of what to expect from ETH in the coming months. 

Ethereum Shows Descending Broadening Pattern

In an X post, Crypto Bullet stated that Ethereum has shown an impressive recovery and is now starting to resemble a Descending Broadening Wedge pattern. He further noted that this pattern is almost identical to the one which ETH had between 2019 and 2020. The analyst added that the picture looks very bullish right now. Between 2019 and 2020, when this pattern emerged, the altcoin rallied from around $180 to $700 in just six months.

Further commenting on the current Ethereum price action, Crypto Bullet revealed that the altcoin is testing the resistance at around $3,700 for the third time. He believes that ETH will eventually break out from this range. However, the analyst warned that there may be a 10 to 15% pullback around that area before that. 

Meanwhile, Crypto Bullet assured that Ethereum will rally hard once it breaks out from this formidable resistance. He predicts that this breakout will lead to a new all-time high (ATH) for ETH, meaning the altcoin is likely to reach $4,900 on the next uptrend. The analyst also stated that the cycle top target for ETH is between $8,000 and $10,000. 

Crypto analyst Mikybull Crypto is also confident that Ethereum can reach $10,000 before this market cycle ends. In an X post, he stated that the euphoria stage will start when ETH breaks a new all-time high (ATH). He indicated that the break above ATH will spark a rally to between $7,000 and $10,000. Once that happens, the analyst believes that a massive bear market will ensue. 

ETH Is Yet To Enter The Banana Zone

In an X post, crypto analyst Ted stated that Ethereum is yet to enter the banana zone. He noted that right now, the altcoin is going through a correction after pulling a 70% rally from its April 2025 lows. The analyst further opined that there will be some sideways accumulation before ETH breaks above $4,100.

However, once that happens, he predicts that Ethereum will record the “most violent rally.” His accompanying chart showed that ETH could rally to a new ATH of around $7,000 on the first leg up. Based on the chart, Ted also believes that the altcoin could reach $14,000, $41,000, and $92,000 at some point. 

At the time of writing, the Ethereum price is trading at around $3,563, down over 4% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

My parents are literally the backbone of my story. They’ve always supported me in good and bad times and never for once left my side whenever I feel lost in this world. Honestly, having such amazing parents makes you feel safe and secure, and I won’t trade them for anything else in this world.

I was exposed to the cryptocurrency world 3 years ago and got so interested in knowing so much about it. It all started when a friend of mine invested in a crypto asset, which he yielded massive gains from his investments.

When I confronted him about cryptocurrency he explained his journey so far in the field. It was impressive getting to know about his consistency and dedication in the space despite the risks involved, and these are the major reasons why I got so interested in cryptocurrency.

Trust me, I’ve had my share of experience with the ups and downs in the market but I never for once lost the passion to grow in the field. This is because I believe growth leads to excellence and that’s my goal in the field. And today, I am an employee of Bitcoinnist and NewsBTC news outlets.

My Bosses and co-workers are the best kinds of people I have ever worked with, in and outside the crypto landscape. I intend to give my all working alongside my amazing colleagues for the growth of these companies.

Sometimes I like to picture myself as an explorer, this is because I like visiting new places, I like learning new things (useful things to be precise), I like meeting new people – people who make an impact in my life no matter how little it is.

One of the things I love and enjoy doing the most is football. It will remain my favorite outdoor activity, probably because I’m so good at it. I am also very good at singing, dancing, acting, fashion and others.

I cherish my time, work, family, and loved ones. I mean, those are probably the most important things in anyone’s life. I don’t chase illusions, I chase dreams.

I know there is still a lot about myself that I need to figure out as I strive to become successful in life. I’m certain I will get there because I know I am not a quitter, and I will give my all till the very end to see myself at the top.

I aspire to be a boss someday, having people work under me just as I’ve worked under great people. This is one of my biggest dreams professionally, and one I do not take lightly. Everyone knows the road ahead is not as easy as it looks, but with God Almighty, my family, and shared passion friends, there is no stopping me.

Crypto analyst Titan of Crypto has provided a bullish outlook for the Ethereum price, assuring that ETH is not dead. The analyst highlighted a bullish pattern, which indicates that the second largest crypto by market cap could soon enjoy another leg up to the upside. 

Analyst Hints Another Leg Up For Ethereum Is On The Horizon 

In an X post, Titan of Crypto stated that Ethereum is not dead and hinted that another leg up was on the horizon for ETH. He reaffirmed that ETH is far from being dead from a technical perspective. The analyst then noted that the Ethereum price is still progressing within a broadening wedge.

Titan of Crypto also revealed that the Ethereum price just revisited the reload zone, the prime area where professionals look to long or buy back ETH. He remarked that this is where smart money steps in, suggesting that Ethereum could rebound from that zone. The analyst’s accompanying chart showed that Ethereum could rally to between $6,129 and $6,589 as it rebounds from this reload zone. 

Macro View Update On ETH

In an earlier analysis, Titan of Crypto also provided a macro view update on Ethereum. He noted that ETH had closed a monthly candle outside the 7-year rising wedge. The analyst added that a confirmed breakout requires the next monthly close to remain outside this wedge. In line with this, he outlined three possible scenarios for ETH. 

For the first scenario, the analyst predicts a reintegration in which key support levels hold, leading to a bounce that pushes ETH back inside the wedge and invalidates the breakout. In the second scenario, Titan of Crypto states that there could be a triple top formation in which support holds, but ETH only retests the wedge before rolling over into a longer-term top. 

Meanwhile, he remarked that for the third scenario, ETH confirms a deeper correction if support fails. However, at this stage, Titan of Crypto believes that the first or second scenario is the most likely. 

The Biggest Hurdle For Ethereum 

Crypto analyst Ali Martinez stated in an X post that the biggest hurdle for Ethereum is at $2,460, where 10.95 million investors acquired 64.52 million ETH. The analyst asserted that breaking through this level will reignite ETH’s bullish momentum.

Smart money already looks to be stepping in to help Ethereum break past this critical resistance level. Martinez revealed in another X post that crypto whales have bought 1.10 million ETH in the last 48 hours. These whales are known to actively accumulate before a price surge, indicating that one may be on the horizon for ETH. 

At the time of writing, the Ethereum price is trading at around $2,200, down over 4% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
