With a major support zone now under intense pressure, traders are closely watching whether bulls can defend this level or if a breakdown will open the door to a deeper decline. Bear Flag Breakdown Keeps Ethereum Under Pressure Ethereum continues to slide, aligning with the broader bearish sentiment currently dominating the market. According to analysis from More Crypto Online, the asset’s recent breakdown from a previously identified bear flag and rejection of the yellow trendline strengthen the hypothesis that the significant B-wave rally peaked back in April. These technical failures serve as strong indicators that the prevailing trend remains firmly to the downside.

While the price has already begun to react from the first support area, traders should remain cautious because bear market cycles frequently involve corrective rallies that can emerge unexpectedly from these support zones.

However, a stronger recovery would require the bulls to reclaim substantial resistance levels and fundamentally invalidate the current bearish framework. At this stage, such a reversal lacks the necessary confirmation and market strength. Ultimately, Ethereum remains locked in a definitive bearish trend following its exit from the bear flag formation. With support levels at $1,550 and $1,400 now squarely in focus, the structural setup continues to favor lower price action over an immediate reversal. ETH Reaches A Critical Decision Zone Crypto analyst MarketMaestro noted in an X post that Ethereum has successfully held both its long-term support trendline and a key Fibonacci support level on the monthly chart. According to the analyst, the current price zone has become a critical battleground between a routine correction and a much deeper structural decline.

On the other hand, if support continues to hold, the recent pullback could still be viewed as a healthy correction within the asset’s longer-term bullish framework. Furthermore, if Ethereum manages to hold support, form a wick on the monthly candle, and rebound from current levels, it would suggest that buyers are aggressively accumulating during the dip and treating it as a high-value entry zone. Despite the possibility of a recovery, MarketMaestro cautioned that the stakes remain high. A decisive breakdown below support could force Ethereum into a prolonged bottoming process , potentially extending the period of weakness before a sustainable uptrend.
