Ethereum is nearing a key moment as two separate charts point to major resistance ahead. One setup shows weakness below $2,400, while the other highlights a possible move toward $2,679 before sellers may step in again.
Ethereum Fails at $2,400 as $2,250 Turns Into Key Support
Ethereum failed to reclaim $2,400 on the 2 day chart, and that rejection kept the structure weak. The chart shows ETH moving into a clear resistance zone near $2,400, then pulling back instead of holding above it. Because of that, buyers have not confirmed strength yet, while sellers still keep pressure on price.

Now the next important level sits near $2,250. This area stands out as the closest support if Ethereum continues lower. If ETH holds that zone, it could attempt another move toward $2,400. After that, the next upside levels on the chart appear near $2,624 and $2,780. However, if ETH loses $2,250, the chart suggests a deeper drop could follow, with the lower green support zone near $1,800 becoming the next major area to watch.
At the same time, Ethereum still looks weaker than Bitcoin. The chart does not show a confirmed trend reversal. Instead, it shows a bounce inside a broader weak structure after the sharp breakdown earlier this year. Therefore, even a small Bitcoin correction could weigh more heavily on ETH. For now, the setup stays simple: Ethereum must defend $2,250 and reclaim $2,400 to improve the short term outlook. Until then, the chart remains fragile.
Ethereum Nears Trendline Test as $2,679 C Wave Target Comes Into Focus
Ethereum is moving toward a key yellow trendline on the 4 day chart, where price could face fresh resistance. The setup shared by More Crypto Online shows ETH recovering from its recent low inside an upward sloping structure, but the rebound is now approaching a longer term descending trendline that has capped price action since late 2025. Because of that, the next move around this area could shape the short term outlook.

At the same time, the chart marks $2,679 as the 100% extension target for wave C. That level stands out as the main upside objective in the current Elliott Wave setup. It also sits near the lower edge of a highlighted resistance zone that starts around $2,605 and stretches toward higher Fibonacci levels. If ETH reaches that area, the market may face stronger selling pressure rather than continue higher without pause.
For now, the structure suggests Ethereum is still in a recovery phase, not a confirmed breakout. The chart shows price rising from the February low in what appears to be an A B C formation, with wave C now advancing toward resistance. Above $2,679, the next marked levels are $2,893, $3,031, $3,275, and $3,332. However, ETH first needs to break through the yellow trendline and hold above the nearby resistance band. Until that happens, the chart still points to a test of resistance, not a clear trend reversal.
