Why former Bank of America strategist sees an Ethereum ‘tactical bottom’
Stephen Suttmeier, former Bank of America strategist, identifies a potential "tactical bottom" for Ethereum (ETH), contingent on the price holding above $1690-$1700 and reclaiming $1800. A decisive move above $1800, turning the 50-day moving average into support, could target the 200-day MA near $2200, implying a 25% upside. This technical view finds some support from other analysts and a double-bottom pattern on the daily chart.
However, on-chain data shows significant headwinds. Exchange selling pressure has surged, with over 220K ETH moved to exchanges recently, and whale selling persists. Furthermore, U.S. spot ETH ETFs, after days of inflows, recorded a $52 million net outflow due to macro risks like U.S.-Iran tensions and bond market volatility.
In summary, while technicals suggest a bullish reversal is possible if ETH sustains above $1800, sustained selling pressure and macroeconomic risks threaten to invalidate the optimistic "tactical bottom" thesis.
