Ethereum Price Analysis: ETH Must Reclaim This Key Level to Confirm a Bullish Reversal

ETH is still trading in a clear downtrend, and the market is reacting fast to both macro risk and geopolitics. With the war in the Middle East adding extra uncertainty, Ethereum is sitting near the 1,800 area on the chart, right on a key demand zone where buyers have tried to defend multiple times.

Ethereum Price Analysis: The Daily Chart

The daily structure remains bearish inside a descending channel, and the price is still capped by the downtrend lines and the 100-day and 200-day moving averages overhead. Until ETH reclaims the major $2,400 and $2,800 resistance levels, rallies look more like relief bounces than a true reversal.

Meanwhile, the nearby support area is located at the $1,850–$1,700 demand zone, and if this level breaks down, the next downside levels to watch are around $1,600 and the $1,400 mark, just above the lower trendline of the descending channel.

ETH/USDT 4-Hour Chart

On the 4-hour timeframe, ETH is behaving more like a range within the larger downtrend, with the price rotating between the support level near 1,800 and the resistance level near recent highs around $2,150. The last push into this level got rejected decisively, which keeps the short-term momentum tilted to the downside.

A bullish shift would require holding the $1,850 level and then reclaiming the $2,150 highs with follow-through, which could open a move back toward the $2,400 supply zone. But if the $1,850 support level fails and turns into resistance on a retest, the road toward the $1,600 mark and below will be cleared.

On-Chain Analysis

The Ethereum Total Value Staked chart demonstrates an aggressive uptrend while the price trends down, which is a supportive long-term signal. It implies more ETH is being locked into staking rather than staying liquid, reducing the readily available supply over time. This behavior could be due to the long-term conviction of investors, as they are buying ETH at discounted prices and locking in for the long term.

However, this does not mean the bottom is guaranteed to be nearby, because the price can still drop if forced selling and deleveraging continue. But if the market reclaims the key resistance levels while staking keeps climbing, it strengthens the case for a more durable recovery later on.

China’s mineral moves shake global tech and defense

China’s mineral moves shake global tech and defense

The post China’s mineral moves shake global tech and defense appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. China’s overseas sales of rare-earth products hit a record in August, just days before an expected phone call between Xi Jinping and Donald Trump that could touch on the sensitive materials at the heart of high-tech manufacturing and defense. Shipments of rare-earth products, including high-performance magnets used in consumer electronics and fighter aircraft reached 7,338 tons last month, according to Bloomberg calculations based on government data. It marks the highest monthly level since early 2012 in the available records. The surge follows a steep drop earlier this year after Beijing curbed some rare-earth exports amid a growing trade dispute with the US. A pause in tensions followed. Following talks in Madrid this week, President Trump said he intends to hold a phone call with President Xi on Friday. Beijing’s rare earth rules tightened in April, cutting trade. Cryptopolitan earlier reported when China set export controls in response to higher U.S. tariffs and limits on technology transfer by Western nations. China supplies over 70% of rare earths and handles about 90% of processing. The Ministry of Commerce said the measures protect national security. New licenses slowed approvals, slashing shipments in April and May. The delays disrupted supply chains and forced auto makers outside Beijing to pause output for shortages. In July, the European Parliament urged the EU to bolster key strengths and warned China’s licensing rules seek sensitive data. Germanium demand overwhelms supply chains Pressure is also building in another corner of the strategic metals market. Chinese limits on exports of germanium, a metal vital for military thermal-imaging systems found in fighter jets and other equipment, have created a sharp supply squeeze and driven prices to their highest level in at least 14 years, traders say. Beijing announced in 2023 that it would halt exports of germanium, gallium and antimony after the…

Xi Jinping speaks with US President Trump on the phone

PANews reported on September 19th that President Xi Jinping spoke with US President Trump by phone tonight. They had a candid and in-depth exchange of views on current China-US relations and issues of mutual concern, and provided strategic guidance for the stable development of China-US relations in the next phase. The call was pragmatic, positive, and constructive. Xi Jinping emphasized the importance of China-US relations. China and the US can achieve mutual success and common prosperity, benefiting both countries and the world. To realize this vision, both sides must meet each other halfway and make efforts to achieve mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation. The recent consultations between the two teams demonstrated the spirit of equality, respect, and reciprocity. The two sides can continue to properly address outstanding issues in the relationship and strive for a win-win outcome. The US should refrain from taking unilateral trade restrictive measures to prevent undermining the achievements achieved through multiple rounds of consultations. China's position on the TikTok issue is clear. The Chinese government respects the wishes of businesses and welcomes them to conduct commercial negotiations based on market rules and reach solutions that comply with Chinese laws and regulations and balance interests. China hopes that the US will provide an open, fair, and non-discriminatory business environment for Chinese companies to invest in the United States.
