Ethereum (ETH) To Rise Further? Key Bullish Pattern Suggests Potential Upside Move

Date: Tue, May 27, 2025 | 09:04 AM GMT

Ethereum (ETH) is showing renewed strength, hinting at more upside after a solid recovery this quarter. The crypto market has bounced back strongly from its Q1 slump, during which ETH had lost more than 45% of its value. Since then, Ethereum has gained over 45%, recently hitting a high of $2,636—its strongest level since late February.

In the last 24 hours, ETH has risen by more than 2%, and now, a bullish chart pattern suggests this could just be the beginning.

Cup and Handle Pattern Signals Possible Breakout

A look at Ethereum’s 4-hour chart reveals a classic Cup and Handle formation—a widely recognized bullish continuation pattern in technical analysis.

ETH bottomed around $2,323 to form the base of the cup. It then climbed and faced rejection near the neckline resistance at $2,733 on May 23. A healthy pullback followed, bringing ETH down to $2,445, which completed the handle’s low. Since then, the coin has rebounded strongly and is now trading near $2,635, inching close to retesting the neckline.

This pattern is often followed by a breakout above the neckline, with momentum typically pushing prices toward a technical target. In Ethereum’s case, a confirmed breakout above $2,733 could set the stage for a move toward $3,143—a potential 19% rally from current levels.

The smaller inset chart in the image reinforces this idea, showing a typical cup-and-handle breakout trajectory.

What to Watch Next?

A clean move above the $2,730–$2,740 neckline area with strong volume could confirm the pattern. If the breakout occurs, ETH may retest the neckline as new support before continuing higher. The measured move from the Cup and Handle structure points toward the $3,143 zone, which could be Ethereum’s next major target.

While technical patterns don’t guarantee outcomes, this setup historically favors bullish momentum when confirmed.
