What you're looking at is a textbook rising channel, well-respected, clean, and elegant in its symmetry. For weeks, ETH has climbed this structure with rhythmic oscillations between support and resistance, almost as if the market were guided by a ruler and compass. Price action respected both boundaries with admirable discipline, making this a trader’s dream for range-based strategies. Now, that structure is being tested sharply.
The most recent candle shows a strong drop from the upper boundary straight to the lower. It didn't drift down gently but fell with force. Yet despite that intensity, price has landed precisely on the lower boundary of the channel. This is often where markets pause and reset. If the structure remains intact, and history offers any guide, this could mark the beginning of a fresh upward leg. The drop may have been more about clearing excess than breaking trend.
There is reason to believe in the bounce. The channel has been reliable, and deep tests like this often come before a recovery, not a collapse. If price begins to stabilize here, even modestly, it would suggest that the market still respects this structure. The next few candles will matter, but for now, the channel is holding. And when a structure like this holds after such a flush, it can produce some of the strongest moves back to the top.
