ETH Price Would Rise Sharply in Coming Months: Analysts
Traders, institutional investors, and analysts are convinced that the current price surge could be the start of a larger, sustained rally.
According to technical analyst Lord Hawkins, Ethereum is breaking out of a textbook Wyckoff Accumulation pattern. This means that the recent price increase is a “Sign of Strength” (SOS) resistance zone, typically followed by a brief pullback to confirm the new uptrend.
