Ethereum is stuck at a major resistance zone where millions of $ETH previously changed hands, making $1,800 the level bulls need to reclaim. A breakout could open the path toward $1,980-$2,079, but rejection keeps the risk of a deeper move toward $1,237 or even $1,000 alive.
Ethereum’s $1,800 Wall Could Decide the Next Breakout
Ethereum is testing a major resistance zone where about 4.30 million $ETH previously changed hands. If buyers reclaim this area, the next upside levels sit near $1,980 and $2,079.

The chart shows Ethereum pressing into the $1,800 area, which stands out as a high-volume resistance zone on the URPD chart.
According to Ali Charts, roughly 4.30 million $ETH changed hands around this level. That makes it important because many holders may react there, either by selling into strength or holding for a stronger breakout.
If $ETH reclaims this zone, the next major resistance levels sit near $1,980 and $2,079. A move through those areas would strengthen the recovery case and show that buyers are absorbing overhead supply.
However, the setup still has rejection risk. If sellers defend the $1,800 wall, $ETH could lose momentum and move back into thinner volume areas below.
The chart shows the next major support baseline near $1,237 if price fails to hold the current reclaim attempt.
For now, $1,800 is the key level. A clean reclaim would open the path toward $1,980-$2,079, while rejection would keep downside risk active.
Ethereum Bear Market Risk Remains as $1,800 Resistance Holds
Ethereum is testing a major resistance zone, but one analyst says the broader bear market may not be over yet. Until $ETH confirms a stronger bullish structure, the chart still leaves room for another deeper low toward the $1,000 area.

The chart shows $ETH pressing into a major Fibonacci resistance area while still trading near a long-term descending trendline.
According to More Crypto Online, Ethereum has not yet shown confirmed evidence that a lasting low is already in place. The analyst’s preferred view remains cautious, with the broader bear market still possibly unfinished.
The first resistance area sits near $1,815, followed by $1,926, $2,045 and $2,226. These levels form the main zone $ETH needs to break before the bullish case becomes stronger.
The chart also shows support near $1,554. If $ETH fails at resistance and loses that area, the downside structure could reopen.
The analyst said historical drawdown and RSI behavior still allow for another significant low, potentially toward $1,000. That makes the current rally important, but not yet enough to confirm a full trend reversal.
The risk scenario is a confirmed five-wave advance on the higher timeframe. If $ETH forms that structure, it would be the first stronger sign that the larger trend is turning bullish.
For now, the macro picture remains cautious. Ethereum needs to break above the resistance zone and build a confirmed bullish structure before the bear-market view weakens.
