Prior to the Fed’s decision on interest rates and following the Pectra update, Ethereum (ETH)
$ 1,824 has stepped out of its prolonged sideways price band into a new upward phase. According to analyst Michaël van de Poppe, the resurgence of ETH above the $1,740 – $1,837 range indicates buyers are re-entering the market. This recovery points to a potential test of the critical $2,105 resistance level. Conversely, a $17.9 million outflow from the Fidelity Ethereum ETF today might exert short-term pressure on the price.
Ethereum Targets $2,100
Ethereum’s robust rebound from its April lows has buoyed market sentiment. The $1,740 – $1,837 range was previously a defended support line for buyers. ETH’s rapid bounce back after dipping below this range demonstrates that bulls are still in control. If investor confidence is re-established at this level, the next move is likely to be upward.

The technical target highlighted in the charts clusters around the $2,105 band. This has historically been a resistance level for Ethereum during past rallies. A clean breakthrough above this level could ignite a broader upward surge. If bulls achieve this goal, the price may head toward much higher levels.
Slowdown in ETH Trading Volume
Recent data indicates a slowdown in Ethereum’s trading volume. Analysis from CryptoQuant shows that large buy-sell transactions have decreased, which could enhance the market’s resilience against sudden shocks. Reduced volatility provides buyers and sellers with extra time to develop strategies, allowing the market to signal recovery more calmly.

Meanwhile, a report from Farside Investors notes a $17.9 million outflow from the Fidelity Ethereum ETF on May 6, 2025. Other major ETFs, however, recorded no significant changes. Such capital outflows may slightly reduce ETH liquidity in the short term, adding pressure on the price. Nonetheless, the general market trend is not expected to shift into a prolonged downtrend.
