The Daily Chart
On the daily chart, the price has been rejected from the $4,000 resistance after rallying consistently since the beginning of February.
The price has dropped to the $3,600 support level, which is currently holding. If ETH rebounds from here, the market might be able to rise above $4,000 and make a new all-time high in the coming weeks. On the other hand, a breakdown can lead to a decline toward $3,000.
The 4-Hour Chart
Looking at the 4-hour timeframe, the price has seemingly experienced a shift in structure. The market has been making lower highs and lows since its rejection from the $4,000 resistance zone.
While the $3,600 support level might still hold, ETH might break lower, as the Relative Strength Index is showing values below 50%. Therefore, a pullback toward the $3,000 level might be expected in the short term.

Ethereum Exchange Reserve
Ethereum’s price has been rallying aggressively over the last few weeks. Yet, the recent drop below the $4,000 level has shocked market participants and caused panic selling by some holders.
This chart displays the exchange reserve metric, which measures the amount of Bitcoin held in exchange wallets. A rise in the metric typically indicates a rise in supply, which could lead to a decline in price.
As the chart demonstrates, the exchange reserve has risen above its 30-day moving average. This points to the fact that many holders are depositing their coins to the exchanges with the intention to sell them. A continuation of this trend can be detrimental, as it could result in a further price decline in the coming weeks.
