The token had traded between approximately $1,856 and $1,926 during the session.<\/p>\n<p>The recovery followed a successful defense of the $1,850\u2013$1,880 region. ETH first reclaimed the daily Bollinger Band midpoint at $1,874 before moving back above the psychological $1,900 level.<\/p>\n<p>Ethereum\u2019s daily chart shows price consolidating between the Bollinger Band midpoint and upper boundary. The upper band sits at $1,973, making the $1,970\u2013$2,000 region the next technical barrier. The lower band remains near $1,775.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ethereum price daily chart \u2014 July 29 | Source: crypto.news<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Buying pressure has also improved. The Chaikin Money Flow reading stands at 0.08, above the neutral line and indicating that capital inflows currently outweigh distribution. However, the indicator remains below its July high, suggesting demand has not yet reached breakout strength.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Morgan Stanley ETF adds to institutional demand<\/h2>\n<p>The rally coincided with the first trading session for the Morgan Stanley Ethereum Trust, which listed on NYSE Arca under the ticker MSSE.<\/p>\n<p>MSSE attracted $5.15 million in net inflows and generated $19.03 million in first-day trading volume. BlackRock\u2019s ETHB recorded the largest daily inflow at $5.91 million, while combined spot Ethereum ETF inflows reached $14.53 million.<\/p>\n<p>US-listed Ethereum funds held about $10.5 billion in net assets after the session, equal to 4.53% of Ethereum\u2019s market capitalization. Cumulative net inflows stood at approximately $11.21 billion, according to SoSoValue <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/sosovalue.com\/assets\/etf\/us-eth-spot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">data<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>MSSE\u2019s launch expands regulated access to ETH for US investors through brokerage and retirement accounts. Its 0.14% expense ratio also increases fee competition among existing Ethereum funds.<\/p>\n<p>ETF inflows alone do not prove that institutions caused the full price move. However, positive flows arrived as ETH tested a major support area, providing additional spot demand when liquidity was relatively thin.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Short liquidations accelerate Ethereum\u2019s bounce<\/h2>\n<p>Derivative positioning added momentum to the recovery. Ethereum short liquidations reached $37.68 million over 24 hours, slightly exceeding the $36.66 million recorded for leveraged long positions.<\/p>\n<p>The largest single liquidation was a $4.74 million ETH-USDT position on Binance, according to CoinGlass data. Forced closures of short positions require exchanges to buy back contracts, which can accelerate an existing price recovery.<\/p>\n<p>The supplied 24-hour liquidation heatmap shows the strongest nearby overhead concentration around $1,938\u2013$1,943. Additional liquidity rests near $1,955\u2013$1,960.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4080\" height=\"2409\" src=\"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1785329941_35_Ethereum-price-reclaims-1900-as-ETF-inflows-rise.webp.webp\" alt=\"Ethereum liquidation heatmap shows major liquidity clusters near $1,940, $1,960 and $1,880.\" class=\"wp-image-14475168\"  ><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ethereum liquidation heatmap | Source: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/pro\/futures\/LiquidationHeatMap?coin=ETH&amp;type=symbol\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">CoinGlass<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>These clusters may attract price if ETH maintains support above $1,900. A move through $1,960 could then expose the $1,970 Bollinger Band resistance and the $2,000 psychological threshold.<\/p>\n<p>On the downside, leveraged positions are concentrated near $1,895\u2013$1,900 and between approximately $1,870 and $1,885. Losing $1,900 could therefore trigger another sweep toward the lower part of the 4-hour channel.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ethereum charts point toward $1,970 resistance<\/h2>\n<p>The 4-hour chart places Ethereum inside an ascending parallel channel that has guided price since early July.

That difference suggests the recent bullish trend retains control despite ETH\u2019s failure to hold its July 27 high near $1,970.<\/p>\n<p>The Awesome Oscillator also remains positive at 15.66. Its green histogram bars show that short-term momentum has begun to improve following the latest pullback.<\/p>\n<p>A close above $1,940 would clear the first major liquidation zone. Bulls would then need to break $1,970 and the upper Bollinger Band to open a test of $2,000. The ascending channel\u2019s upper boundary could provide further resistance between $2,000 and $2,030.<\/p>\n<p>Failure to hold $1,880 would weaken the channel structure. Below that level, the daily Bollinger midpoint at $1,874 becomes the first defense, followed by $1,800 and the lower band near $1,775.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Analysts see $1,800 as the critical floor<\/h2>\n<p>Crypto analyst <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoMichNL\/status\/2082409548342780038\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Micha\u00ebl van de Poppe identified<\/a> $1,800 as the level Ethereum must preserve for the recovery to continue.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d preferably see it hold above $1,800.
