Ethereum Shortfall Says Price Is Headed Lower Unless This Happens
Ethereum's price rebound is facing a key technical test after rising with the broader crypto market. Analysis of its daily chart reveals ETH has been trading within a rising channel since February 2026. While forming higher lows, it has consistently failed to reach the channel's upper boundary around $2,520, stalling near $2,420—a roughly 6% shortfall indicating weakening momentum. Furthermore, the 200-day EMA remains above the current price. In contrast, Bitcoin has cleanly reached its own channel high. The critical level for ETH is a confirmed breakout above $2,420, turning it into support to reach the $2,520 channel top. Without this, Ethereum risks further underperformance versus Bitcoin. At publication, ETH was trading at $2,284.
