Ethereum starts the week at $2,434, -0.53% over the past seven days and -7.54% over 30 days. Last week’s range ran from $2,317 to $2,539. 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 40.9 — below the midline, pointing to soft momentum
- Volatility: average true range of $100.24 per day (4.12% of price)
- Support / resistance: $2,317 / $2,808 (30-day range)
Trend and moving averages
| Indicator | Level | ETH vs. level |
|---|---|---|
| EMA 20 (daily) | $2,507 | -2.92% |
| EMA 50 (daily) | $2,484 | -2.02% |
| EMA 200 (daily) | $2,325 | +4.69% |
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 -16% versus the 30-day average, showing thinner participation.
Key levels to watch

Scenarios for the week
Upside: a daily close above last week’s high at $2,539 would put the 30-day high at $2,808 in focus.
Downside: losing last week’s low at $2,317 would expose the 90-day low around $1,822.
With a daily ATR of about $100.24, a stop placed one ATR away from entry is roughly 4.1% — use the position size calculator to size trades around that distance.
