Recent technical analysis shows that Ether (ETH) may be setting up for a significant price rise, potentially signaling the beginning of “AltSeason” in the near future.
Analysts Forecast ETH Prices Over $10,000
Crypto analyst Mikybull suggests that using the Wyckoff method points to a possible breakout at around $3,200.
He noted in a June 26 post on X that “Ethereum will be ‘tested’ with Wyckoff Reaccumulation Schematic.”
“A large gathering is likely coming.”
Another analyst from Xforceglobal echoed this optimism, mentioning that Ethereum is “attempting to film” at its cycle’s highest levels.
The recent ascent to $2,800 has been “objectively bullish” and aligns with supporting data. The related chart indicates that Elliott Wave analysis could predict a breakout to approximately $9,400.
“ETH is gearing up for a new height in this cycle, aiming for around $9,000-10,000.”
Various analysts have made predictions for ETH to surpass $10,000, attributing this to historical patterns, rising institutional demand through Ethereum ETFs, and other contributing factors.
Getting Ready for Altseason: Analysts’ Insights
The Altcoin Season Index, which gauges the performance of cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin, suggests it’s an opportune moment to invest in Altcoins.
Related: Ethereum is poised for a rally as it surpasses the critical $2,400 mark, say analysts.
Joao Wedson, founder of Alphractal, remarked on X that “the Altcoin season index is showing signs of opportunity,” advising followers to “prepare” in a post from June 26.
Over the past two months, Bitcoin has outstripped Altcoins, with the Altcoin Season Index dropping below 20%. However, Wedson pointed out that this isn’t necessarily negative, suggesting it could be a good chance to buy Altcoins while prices are still lagging.
The accompanying chart shows that when the index exceeds 20%, it typically spikes quickly, with “lagging” altcoins soon overtaking Bitcoin by rising above 80%.
“History indicates these cycles come around again,” Wedson noted.
When Will Altseason Arrive?
Bitcoin’s dominance, which measures its market share relative to the entire crypto market, is a common indicator of whether Altseason is on the horizon. This can provide traders with a glimpse into overall investor sentiment and risk profiles.
Currently, BTC dominance remains at 65.77%, signaling that it’s still very much a “Bitcoin season.” Historically, a genuine Altseason begins when Bitcoin’s dominance exceeds 70%, followed by a noticeable drop.
“A full Altseason could very well start at that point,” noted analyst Mikybull.
Rekt Capital, a popular crypto analyst, mentioned BTC’s dominance is just 5.5% away from revisiting the 71% level for the first time since January 2021, a typically significant marker that tends to follow a successful retest at 64%.
“Bitcoin’s control is likely to wane in the upcoming weeks,” cautioned a pseudonymous analyst from Chart Design, who suggested that picking the right altcoins could lead to substantial gains soon.
