ETH’s current rebound is nearing its end; patiently wait for the 2000–2100 pullback to materialize



Let’s be completely candid about the market: Ethereum’s rebound this time already needs a healthy pullback and shakeout.

With overall market sentiment recovering recently, ETH has followed Bitcoin in a correlated rebound and continued its recovery trend, leading many people to turn bullish and chase the rise.
However, the short-term market has clearly shown signs of weakening momentum, exhausted bulls, and overbought divergence, making a continued hard push unrealistic.

There is no market that only rises and never falls. Even strong trends develop by rising for a while and then undergoing a correction.
The reasonable and healthy pullback target for this move is very clear: ETH should wait for a retracement into the core 2100–2000 range.

Why am I so certain that this pullback is needed?

1. Dense resistance levels and heavy accumulation of profit-taking positions
The 2100 area is a key structural level that experienced repeated consolidation previously, as well as a strong short-term supply-and-demand resistance zone.
This rebound has accumulated a large number of short-term profitable positions. Without sufficient shakeout and absorption of these floating positions, there is simply no momentum for a sustained upward move.
2. Strong need for indicator recovery
Indicators on the four-hour and hourly timeframes have already become sluggish at high levels, while bullish momentum continues to be overextended.
A hard push higher would only invite a rapid wick-and-selloff move. A moderate retreat to 2000–2100 is the healthiest way to build strength.
3. Market rhythm always involves rotation and shakeouts
There are currently too many retail traders blindly following the bullish trend, with consensus becoming overly one-sided.
The market often harvests sentiment in the opposite direction. Through a pullback, it washes out uncommitted momentum traders and reconsolidates positions, creating room for the next genuine rally.

Short-term precise timing strategy

Resistance zone: Do not blindly chase long positions from the current level; the closer to the highs, the greater the pullback risk
Expected pullback zone: 2100 → 2000 core support band
This area is both the base of the previous consolidation and the key defensive level for this rebound. Once the pullback is complete, it will offer the highest-value dip-buying opportunity.

Trading approach
For those holding positions: Reduce positions in batches at high levels to avoid giving back profits during the pullback
For those without positions: Do not chase highs under any circumstances; control your impulses and patiently wait for 2000–2100 to stabilize before entering

One final word from the heart

Many people fear missing out and blindly chase at high levels, but truly steady market moves are about waiting for pullbacks to find opportunities, not chasing highs to speculate on a premium.

ETH does not need to continue surging wildly right now; it needs a clean and decisive pullback to build strength.
Only after 2000–2100 is reached and stabilizes will a new trend truly begin. Patiently waiting for the right rhythm is far more important than making frequent, random trades.

Wait patiently for the pullback to materialize and make good use of the dip-buying opportunity.

Exactly right—the worst thing is chasing at the top after missing the move, only to give back all your profits when a pullback hits. Staying patient and waiting for the right rhythm is ten times better than making random moves.

The 2000-2100 range is indeed crucial. Previous rebounds were all met with resistance here; if this pullback holds, the way will be clear for the next leg up.

First Review
The indicator’s high-level flattening is real; the four-hour RSI has even formed a bearish divergence. A hard push upward could instead easily trigger a wick, while a pullback to shake out weak hands would be healthier.
