Ethereum price data highlights $1,000 as the final bottom for ETH

Ether (ETH), the native token of Ethereum, is showing signs of bullish exhaustion after a steep 65% decline over the past three months. The pace of the downtrend and the oversold conditions shown by various ETH price metrics have investors wondering if a market bottom is approaching.ETH fractals point to a drop to $1,000Ether’s current price action mirrors a familiar fractal pattern seen in 2018 and 2022. In both instances, ETH price saw euphoric rallies that ended with sharp breakdowns and prolonged bear markets.Each of these cycles shared the following key traits:Higher price highs were accompanied by lower highs in the relative strength index, which is a classic sign of bearish divergence and weakening momentum.ETH/USD weekly price chart.

In December 2024, Ether formed a higher high near $4,095, while the RSI made a lower high—mirroring the bearish divergence seen in previous tops. This divergence marked the beginning of a sharp correction, much like the patterns seen in 2018 and 2022. Currently, ETH’s price has closed below the 1.0 Fibonacci retracement level at around $1,550. Meanwhile, its weekly RSI is still above the oversold threshold of 30, suggesting room for further declines, at least until the reading drops below 30.ETH/USD weekly RSI performance chart.

In previous cycles, similar moves into this zone occurred close to major market bottoms.Ethereum NUPL vs. price chart. Source: GlassnodeIn March 2020, the NUPL turned negative just before ETH rebounded sharply following the COVID-19 market crash. A similar pattern emerged in June 2022, when the metric fell into capitulation territory shortly before Ethereum established a bear market low of around $880.Now that ETH is once again entering this zone, the current setup loosely echoes those prior bottoming phases—coinciding with key Fibonacci support levels near $1,000.This article does not contain investment advice or recommendations.
