Ethereum is finally showing more upside potential. After spending weeks building a base above the February lows, ETH has now pushed into a key resistance zone, which makes this one of the more important tests since the selloff began. The rebound is real, but it is now approaching an area where sellers previously stepped in.

Ethereum Price Analysis: The Daily Chart

The daily chart has improved, but the broader trend is not fully repaired yet. ETH is still trading below the major 100-day and 200-day moving averages, and the bigger bearish structure from the previous months has not been completely invalidated. Even so, the strong reaction from the $1,800 region confirms that buyers have been defending that area aggressively.

The asset is now trading near the $2,300 to $2,400 supply zone, which is the next major battleground. If buyers manage to turn this area into support, the path could open toward the higher resistance band near $2,800. If not, this move may end up being just a strong relief rally inside a still-damaged higher timeframe structure.

ETH/USDT 4-Hour Chart

On the 4-hour chart, the recovery looks much cleaner. ETH has been climbing inside an ascending channel, printing higher highs and higher lows, which shows clear short-term control by buyers. The asset has even broken above the channel, pointing to a potentially more aggressive rally, if the current move does not become a fake breakout by dropping back inside the channel. Momentum has also expanded sharply, with RSI pushing into the overbought territory as the price accelerated into resistance.

That said, the market is no longer trading in the middle of the range. It is now testing the upper boundary of the recent advance and pressing into overhead supply at the same time. This usually means the next move matters a lot. It can either be a breakout continuation above the channel and resistance, or a fakeout and drop toward the mid-channel and the $2,000 to $2,100 area.

On-Chain Analysis

The on-chain backdrop is constructive. Ethereum’s 30-day transaction count exponential moving average remains elevated relative to most of the past cycle, even after cooling off from its recent spike.

That suggests network activity has not collapsed with the prior price weakness and that underlying usage is still holding up fairly well. However, it also shows that a potential capitulation phase is happening, as many holders have become active in selling their coins and exiting the market quickly. However, for every seller, there is a fresh buyer.

Overall, the network is showing better participation than price alone might suggest. That does not guarantee immediate upside, but it does support the idea that the recent rebound has a stronger foundation than a purely speculative bounce. If the price can now follow through above resistance, the on-chain picture would start to align much more clearly with a broader recovery thesis.

EUR/CHF slides as Euro struggles post-inflation data

EUR/CHF slides as Euro struggles post-inflation data

The post EUR/CHF slides as Euro struggles post-inflation data appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. EUR/CHF weakens for a second straight session as the euro struggles to recover post-Eurozone inflation data. Eurozone core inflation steady at 2.3%, headline CPI eases to 2.0% in August. SNB maintains a flexible policy outlook ahead of its September 25 decision, with no immediate need for easing. The Euro (EUR) trades under pressure against the Swiss Franc (CHF) on Wednesday, with EUR/CHF extending losses for the second straight session as the common currency struggles to gain traction following Eurozone inflation data. At the time of writing, the cross is trading around 0.9320 during the American session. The latest inflation data from Eurostat showed that Eurozone price growth remained broadly stable in August, reinforcing the European Central Bank’s (ECB) cautious stance on monetary policy. The Core Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP), which excludes volatile items such as food and energy, rose 2.3% YoY, in line with both forecasts and the previous month’s reading. On a monthly basis, core inflation increased by 0.3%, unchanged from July, highlighting persistent underlying price pressures in the bloc. Meanwhile, headline inflation eased to 2.0% YoY in August, down from 2.1% in July and slightly below expectations. On a monthly basis, prices rose just 0.1%, missing forecasts for a 0.2% increase and decelerating from July’s 0.2% rise. The inflation release follows last week’s ECB policy decision, where the central bank kept all three key interest rates unchanged and signaled that policy is likely at its terminal level. While officials acknowledged progress in bringing inflation down, they reiterated a cautious, data-dependent approach going forward, emphasizing the need to maintain restrictive conditions for an extended period to ensure price stability. On the Swiss side, disinflation appears to be deepening. The Producer and Import Price Index dropped 0.6% in August, marking a sharp 1.8% annual decline. Broader inflation remains…
