This level has formed a critical technical marker since August, acting as key support during rallies and stiff resistance during recent corrections.<\/p>\n<p>As ETH clawed its way back to $4,250 following the crash, it was met with heavy selling pressure. Technical indicators point to continuing market fatigue and an absence of bullish conviction.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>With sellers in control and momentum indicators flashing, ETH could be set for a deeper correction toward $3,500, a pivotal level for both short- and medium-term price action.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ethereum price outlook<\/h2>\n<p>ETH is currently wedged just under a key weekly support level that has repeatedly shaped its price action over recent months. Higher time frame levels like this often see price move through them intraday, but a weekly close below $3,800 raises the risk that this support could flip to resistance, setting a new hurdle for bulls.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ethereum price chart | Source: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/chart\/VFgmXGfd\/?symbol=BINANCE%3AETHUSDT\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">TradingView<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If ETH closes the week below $3,800, traders will likely set sights on $3,450, where aggressive buying previously sparked a sharp rebound.\u00a0Conversely, a weekly close above $3,800 would reignite bullish hopes. ETH could then target a fresh run at $4,250, an area that has consistently acted as major resistance since August. <\/p>\n<p>Overcoming that wall will require more than just technical momentum. Strong volume and visible buying from institutional investors, corporate ETH treasuries, and robust ETF inflows will be essential catalysts.\u00a0Without these supportive forces, ETH\u2019s outlook remains vulnerable, with $3,500 increasingly in play.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a volatile week of failed recoveries and fading momentum, Ethereum price is showing renewed signs of strain as it slips deeper into correction territory.
