A cryptocurrency analyst and trader is saying that Ethereum (ETH) is primed to fall to levels last recorded in late 2023.
The analyst pseudonymously known as Capo tells his 104,092 Telegram subscribers that Ethereum could fall by over 26% from the current level.
“Ethereum has been ranging between $2,000 and $2,800 for two months. It appears to be an accumulation range. However, as mentioned in recent days, it is likely that we will see one final shakeout before an expansion, to $1,800 – $2,000 (the spring phase of the accumulation schematic).”
Ethereum is trading at $2,430 at time of writing.
According to the pseudonymous analyst, an Ethereum collapse could lead to altcoins plummeting, consequently increasing the chances of a proper altcoin season kicking off down the road.
“If that potential shakeout occurs, altcoins should dump 20% – 40%, a ‘capitulation candle’ similar to the Covid crash. Don’t get scared if that happens. It would probably be one of the best buying opportunities in months.”
Turning to Bitcoin (BTC), Capo says the recovery of the flagship crypto asset to above $60,000 earlier this week after pulling back to under $59,000 appears to be a “dead cat bounce.” A dead cat bounce is an uptick in the price of an asset after a downtrend which gives a false sense of a rally but then is followed by another leg down.
Says Capo,
“First move done.
Now we should see a local top formation around here and bearish continuation this week.”
Bitcoin is trading at $62,275 at time of writing.
