From 12:00 to 12:15 UTC on July 7, 2026, ETH achieved a +0.57% gain in 15 minutes, with the price testing upward from 1780.31 USDT to 1792.29 USDT, with the amplitude reaching 0.67%. The market is in a critical technical resistance testing phase, with intensified long-short battle.
The main driver of this short-term anomaly is the attempt to break through a key technical resistance. ETH is currently challenging the dual resistance zone formed by the Supertrend indicator ($1,803.65) and the 50-day EMA ($1,804.30). The 4-hour 50-day MA is in an uptrend, and the 14-day RSI at 57.42 is in a neutral-to-bullish zone, providing trend support for the price.
Furthermore, market sentiment is in the extreme fear zone (Fear & Greed Index 24), suggesting oversold bounce demand in the market, with some bottom-fishing funds entering to push the price higher in the short term. Meanwhile, the positive impact of Vitalik's "Lean Ethereum" long-term roadmap released the previous day (July 6) continues to ferment, with some investors making short-term purchases based on long-term optimism. Multiple factors resonate, driving the price to achieve a moderate +0.57% gain.
Currently, attention should be paid to whether ETH can effectively break through the $1,803.65-$1,804.30 resistance zone; if not, it may give back gains. Spot Ethereum ETF has seen cumulative net outflows exceeding $1.2 billion for four consecutive weeks, with total ETF AUM plummeting over 70% from its high to approximately $8.71 billion. Sustained capital outflow pressure may weigh on the price. Investors need to closely monitor the resistance breakthrough, on-chain fund flows, and ETF fund changes, and be aware of short-term volatility risks.
