Key point:

  • An ETH treasury purchase by SharpLink Gaming boosted investor sentiment, clearing the path for a potential rally to $3,153.

Ether (ETH) price entered a strong uptrend this week, leading many analysts to predict a rally to $3,000 before the end of July. These traders cite an uptick in spot ETH ETF inflows and multiple corporate Ether treasury announcements as a primary factor in the recent bullish momentum.

SharpLink Gaming said it had purchased 7,689 Ether (ETH) between June 28 and July 4, at an average price of $2,501. That has boosted the sports betting firm’s holdings to 205,634 ETH, worth more than $533 million.

Could ETH prices rally in anticipation of more companies adopting an ETH treasury strategy? Let’s analyze the charts to find out.

The 20-day exponential moving average ($2,561) has started to turn up, and the relative strength index (RSI) is in the positive territory, indicating an advantage to buyers. Sellers are expected to fiercely defend the $2,879 level, but if the bulls prevail, the ETH/USDT pair could surge to $3,153 and later to $3,400.

Sellers are likely to have other plans. They will try to pull the price back below $2,738. If they do that, the pair could drop to the 20-day EMA, which is a crucial level to watch out for. If the price rebounds off the 20-day EMA, the bulls will again attempt to drive the price above $2,879.

On the other hand, a break below the 20-day EMA suggests the pair may remain inside the $2,111 to $2,879 range for some more time.

The pair’s rise above $2,800 pushed the RSI into overbought territory, suggesting a pullback or consolidation in the near term. If the price slips below $2,738, the pair could reach the 20-EMA on the 4-hour chart. A solid bounce off the 20-EMA shows that the sentiment remains positive and the bulls are buying on dips. That increases the likelihood of a rally to $2,879.

Contrarily, a break and close below the 20-EMA suggests the bulls are booking profits in a hurry. That may pull the pair down to the 50-simple moving average.
