Today, the crypto market recorded outflows, wiping out previous gains in Ethereum and other altcoins. These recent short-term exits weakened the bullish drive, with several digital asset whales repositioning their portfolios. However, many traders believe this could be a takeoff point for the largest altcoin by market capitalization.
ETH Is Still In The Buy Zone
The price of ETH stands at $2,437, falling 3% in intraday trading and a massive 7.7% over the last seven days. Crypto trader Mando CT wrote on X (formerly Twitter) that Ethereum is still trading with the current buy zone, calling on traders to keep an eye on the market before making any big moves.
Day traders use short-term price swings to offload assets and record gains. The activities of bulls in the market and centralized exchange flows spur traders to move in certain directions.
“$ETH is still trading in the buy zone, IMO. Speaking of patience, it might be wise to keep an eye on the market for the next few days before making any big moves. If you ask me; I’m still confident that we’ll see $ETH hitting a 5-digit price in this cycle. When $ETH surges, it usually takes the whole market with it, fueling altcoin runs and lifting the entire crypto ecosystem.”
Other traders pointed to ETH flows to derivatives exchanges. On Oct 24, net inflows to those platforms surged by 96,000 ETH and might trigger bullish sentiments. On both sides of the divide, bears and bulls posit factors that change the price dynamics from their perspective. However, bulls maintaining the uphill on-chain direction will ignite a positive shift.
ETH Price Falters Amid Market Push
The past week has seen the wider crypto market notch slight gains in Bitcoin and several altcoins. Bitcoin’s price and the activities of institutional inventions are known to drive up prices as bulls set sights on stronger points. The price of the market leader trades above $66,500, recording slight long-term gains.
The ETH price failed to capitalize on this growth, causing mixed signals in the space. Conversely, as in Bitcoin, institutional inflows into spot ETH ETFs could spark an uphill drive. ETF flows are a driving force in the market, rallying BTC to an all-time high above $73,000.
