Analyst Ted Pillows provides a technical analysis:

  • Ethereum is rebounding from a demand zone between $2,700 and $2,800, which acts as a major support band.
  • If this support holds, Ethereum might push toward the $3,100 to $3,200 range.
  • If the support fails, a deeper pullback could test the $2,500 level.
