The next few months are expected to be volatile as speculative interest and trading activity increases, with many traders poised to make big gains. Despite the expected price volatility, analysts agree that Ethereum’s next major target is a yearly high of $4,000. A break of this level would confirm Ethereum’s bullish momentum and pave the way for potential new all-time highs, in line with broader market optimism.

ETH consolidates over $3,000

Ethereum is trading at $3,180, after a recent surge to a local high of $3,250. After a strong rally over the weekend, the price has paused, indicating a need for consolidation before another potential breakout. This period of sideways movement may be necessary for ETH to establish support and prepare for further upside, as it allows buyers to gather momentum while absorbing any short-term selling pressure.

Key technical levels show that bullish sentiment is likely to strengthen if ETH maintains its position above $2,950, in line with the 200-day moving average (MA). Holding this critical support level would indicate buyers remain in control, leading to a potential ETH rally towards $3,500 soon.

However, it is also possible that ETH will take a few days to build the momentum needed for its next big move as investors evaluate the recent rally and consider upcoming catalysts.
