Ethereum starts the week at $2,554, -5.75% over the past seven days and +1.13% over 30 days. Last week’s range ran from $2,406 to $2,725. ETH sits between its key moving averages — above some and below others — so the trend picture is mixed.
Summary
- Trend: Mixed (price vs. EMA 20 / 50 / 200)
- Momentum: daily RSI(14) at 46.5 — near the neutral 50 line
- Volatility: average true range of $75.90 per day (2.97% of price)
- Support / resistance: $2,358 / $2,808 (30-day range)
Trend and moving averages
| Indicator | Level | ETH vs. level |
|---|---|---|
| EMA 20 (daily) | $2,596 | -1.61% |
| EMA 50 (daily) | $2,506 | +1.95% |
| EMA 200 (daily) | $2,325 | +9.85% |
The 20-day EMA is above the 50-day EMA, so short-term momentum is leading the medium-term trend higher. Trading volume over the past week is -21% versus the 30-day average, showing thinner participation.
Key levels to watch
| Level | Price | Distance |

Scenarios for the week
Upside: a daily close above last week’s high at $2,725 would put the 30-day high at $2,808 in focus.
Downside: losing last week’s low at $2,406 would expose 30-day support around $2,358.
With a daily ATR of about $75.90, a stop placed one ATR away from entry is roughly 3.0% — use the position size calculator to size trades around that distance.
