Key Takeaways

  • Ethereum’s (ETH) price reached a 170-day high today.
  • Ethereum has finally outperformed Bitcoin (BTC) for two months.
  • Can Ethereum reach a new all-time high price during this cycle?

On July 16, Ethereum Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) inflows reached a new daily all-time high of $726 million.

This would amount to $4.1 billion in BTC inflows relative to its market capitalization, which has not happened yet.

While BlackRock led with nearly half a billion, public companies and whale wallets have also upped their holdings.

Ethereum’s (ETH) current price is reflecting this newfound interest. It is up by 57% in the past four weeks.

With that in mind, let’s examine the Ethereum price action and determine if it will finally reach its elusive all-time high.

Why is Ethereum Going Up?

The ETH price movement since March has been nothing short of extraordinary.

After an over 65% plunge that led to a breakdown from a two-year diagonal support, ETH reversed its trend and has gone parabolic since.

The price reclaimed the trend line, confirmed it as support (green icon), and has since created four successive bullish candlesticks.

The Ethereum price is less than 20% from its cycle high today.

Despite the promising price action, the real bullish signal comes from momentum indicators. More specifically, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) crossed 50, and the Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) crossed 0.

The two previous times this happened led to 165% and 72% rallies, respectively.

So, the price action and indicator readings decisively bullishly predict that the Ethereum price rally will continue in 2025.

Let’s look at the wave count to determine if a new all-time high is likely.

New ETH All-Time High?

Ethereum’s wave count suggests a new all-time high price is likely this cycle.

However, the movement since the June 2022 bear market low does not resemble an impulse.

As a result, the most likely structure is an irregular correction that takes Ethereum to a new all-time high.

The possibility that fits the most is that the entire bull market rally is an A-B-C structure (black) that completed a long-term B wave (red).

If this is the case, ETH is currently in wave C, which will take it to new highs.

The most likely region for a top is between $5,770 and $7,326, created by the 1.61 external Fibonacci retracements of the short- and long-term corrections.

Zooming in on the daily time frame shows that ETH is in wave three of the five-wave movement that makes up the rally, hence its parabolic shape.

The most likely target for the top of wave three is at $4,270, which will give it 1.61 times the length of wave one. The sub-wave count (black aligns with this possibility.

Afterward, the fifth and final wave will take the Ethereum price to a new all-time high.

Ethereum Outperforms Bitcoin

One of the most welcome sights for altcoin holders has been ETH, which has finally outperformed BTC for a significant time.

The ETH to BTC ratio has trended downward since Dec. 2021, losing 80% of its value until March 2025.

However, once the ETH price bounced at the ₿0.017 horizontal support area, it rallied and broke out from a descending resistance trend line.

The RSI also broke out; its value of 57 is the highest since August 2022, and could mark the start of a sustained upward trend.

Ethereum faces no critical horizontal and Fibonacci resistance until ₿0.051, so the upward movement may have more room to grow.

ETH Will Lead the Market

To say that Ethereum’s price movement has been disappointing this cycle would be a massive understatement.

However, that is all set to change as Ethereum has significantly outperformed Bitcoin since March.

The Ethereum price analysis suggests this will continue, and ETH will reach a new all-time high this cycle.
