The Ethereum price is signaling a potential breakout based on recent price movements. According to Trader Tardigrade, a crypto analyst on X (formerly Twitter), Ethereum could see its value reaching new all-time highs of around $10,000 if it can successfully break out of its current symmetrical triangle formation. 

ETH Triangle Breakout Targets $10,000

Trader Tardigrade has predicted Ethereum’s next price target to $10,000 based on an ascending trendline and symmetrical triangle pattern. To be more precise, the analyst has confirmed that the Ethereum price has been following a distinctive ascending trendline and is now forming a key symmetrical triangle pattern, which often indicates an imminent price breakout.

In light of these developments, Trader Tardigrade has revealed that, historically, Ethereum has experienced explosive rallies to new highs after breaking out of symmetrical triangle patterns. Sharing an Ethereum price chart confirming this observation, Trader Tardigrade revealed that from June 2022 to the present, the Ethereum price has broken out of multiple symmetrical triangle patterns while playing on an ascending trendline. 

Before April 2023, the cryptocurrency’s price broke out of a symmetrical triangle, which led to a massive 70.73% price increase to new highs. Similarly, from around October 2023 to the beginning of 2024, the cryptocurrency experienced its second breakout, triggering a massive 140.4% price rally.

Based on these historical bullish trends, Trader Tardigrade has noted that Ethereum is approaching its third breakout from its current symmetrical triangle pattern. In the last breakout, the cryptocurrency had doubled its gains, jumping 70% from the first breakout to 140%. 

With this in mind, the analyst has projected that this next breakout could result in a 280% price increase for Ethereum, doubling its 140% jump from the second breakout. Moreover, if Ethereum’s price increases by this projected 280% rally, then its price could potentially reach $10,000. 

Update On The Ethereum Price Action

Despite bullish projections suggesting that Ethereum could be gearing up to hit new all-time highs, the cryptocurrency has been under significant downward pressure, experiencing major declines and slow growth. To the dismay of Ethereum investors, the cryptocurrency has declined again by 2.20% in the last 24 hours, after experiencing a 4.1% decrease over the past week, according to CoinMarketCap.

The ongoing decline in Ethereum has also prompted significant backlash from many crypto community members, with analysts ranking it as one of the most underperforming assets from the previous market cycle. While other crypto members emphasize how disappointing the cryptocurrency’s price performance has been lately. 

As of writing, the Ethereum price is trading at $2,517, with many predicting that the cryptocurrency could drop even lower and possibly trigger a downturn for other altcoins in the market if it fails to maintain the 0.038 BTC/ETH level.
