Ethereum isn’t asking for permission—it’s bulldozing resistance. The second-largest crypto just punched through the 50-day moving average (MA50), a classic bullish signal that has traders scrambling for their buy orders.

Targets in sight? Higher. Much higher.

Technical traders love these breakouts because they often precede extended runs. And let’s be honest—after months of sideways action, even the most jaded crypto bros are whispering ‘bull market’ again. (Though Wall Street will still call it a ‘speculative asset’ right up until their clients demand exposure.)

No guarantees in crypto, of course. But when ETH flips resistance into support, history suggests the upside gets… interesting.

Ethereum Targets $4,000 After EMA50 Breakout

The ethereum price has delivered an explosive rally after its recent breakout above the EMA50 barrier. Given this development, crypto analyst Doctor Profit has forecasted on the X social media that ETH is gearing up for a massive surge toward $4,000. 

Sharing a detailed chart analysis, Doctor Profit disclosed that ethereum was finally able to close above the key moving average after weeks of resistance and failed attempts to flip it into support—a struggle clearly shown by the multiple rejection wicks marked by the green arrows.  

Notably, Ethereum’s breakout has triggered a strong continuation move, with its price surging over 28.17% in just one week, climbing from around $2,500 to a high NEAR $3,226, at the time of the analysis. This price action marks a significant shift in momentum, indicating that the bulls may have regained control on the higher time frame.

According to Doctor Profit, Ethereum’s current technical structure suggests that further upside could follow its EMA50 breach. The clean break and hold above the moving average have invalidated previous bearish pressure zones and opened a path toward potentially higher price targets. 

Based on historical price behavior after similar breakouts, the analyst expects Ethereum to rally toward $4,000 in the coming weeks. Such a move would reflect a notable 9.64% increase from its current price of approximately $3,648. 

In his post, Doctor Profit noted that ETH is showing no immediate signs of weakness on the chart, with price holding strong above prior resistance levels. As a result, the recent breakout appears to have solidified as a new foundation for the next leg up.

ETH Upside Targets Extend Beyond $4,000

Crypto market expert Henry stated in a recent analysis on X that Ethereum has staged a comeback, surging past $3,400 for the first time in five months and breaking out of a textbook Bull Flag pattern. This bullish momentum follows weeks of price consolidation and a key fakeout, which appears to have successfully flushed out prior downside liquidity. 

After forming two distinct consolidation zones around the $1,800-$2,000 and $2,800-$3,000 levels, ETH faked a breakdown before launching into a sharp rally. The cryptocurrency’s chart structure now shows strong bullish continuation signals, with the current trend pointing toward an immediate target of $4,000.

Henry has forecasted that Ethereum’s upside targets extend far beyond $4,000, with potential milestones projected at $6,000 and even $10,000. While the analyst remains confident in ETH’s ability to reach these bullish targets, he acknowledges that a short-term correction to around $2,800 is possible before the price rally.
