Ethereum is showing a short term breakout setup, but the bigger chart still points to heavy resistance overhead. That leaves ETH at a key turning point, where a wedge breakout could lift momentum, yet the broader bearish structure stays active unless buyers clear the main invalidation level. Ethereum Rally Still Looks Corrective as $2,402 Remains the Key Break Level Ethereum’s four hour chart shared by Man of Bitcoin shows a rebound that still looks corrective rather than trend changing. The move is labeled as an A B C structure, with wave C pushing into a marked resistance zone but not…
