đŸ”„ ETHEREUM (ETH) TECHNICAL & NEWS ANALYSIS — AUGUST 21, 2026

Ethereum remains strongly bullish, but after a ~29% weekly rally, chasing the price near resistance is becoming increasingly risky.

📰 FUNDAMENTALS

‱ ETH spot ETFs recorded approximately $220.77M of inflows on Aug. 20 — the strongest daily inflow since October 2025.

‱ ETH reached around $2,430, its highest level in roughly four months.

‱ U.S. Treasury buyback plans and improving crypto-regulatory expectations are supporting broader market liquidity and sentiment.

‱ However, large ETH holders have also taken profits, so volatility and pullback risk remain elevated.

📊 TECHNICAL STRUCTURE

4H trend: 🟱 BULLISH

ETH has broken above the important $2,300 area and is maintaining a higher-high / higher-low structure.

Major resistance: 🔮 $2,400–$2,450

Key support: 🟱 $2,280–$2,320

Next resistance: $2,500–$2,520

Major upside zone: $2,700–$3,000

🎯 PREFERRED LONG SETUP

Entry: $2,280–$2,320

🛑 Stop Loss: $2,215

✅ TP1: $2,400 ✅ TP2: $2,500 🚀 TP3: $2,700

Risk/Reward improves significantly if ETH gives a controlled pullback into the entry zone rather than being chased at $2,400+.

⚠ INVALIDATION

A decisive 4H close below $2,200 would weaken the bullish structure and could open the door toward $2,000–$2,100.

📌 Trading view: BULLISH — but BUY THE PULLBACK, don't chase the pump.

Always manage position size and risk. This is a technical market scenario, not financial advice.
