$ETH Is it time to buy Ethereum at the bottom?

On December 18, 2025, Ethereum is not suitable for bottom fishing; the current market shows a clear bearish trend, and there are contradictory long and short signals, lacking clear signs of a bottoming out. The specific analysis is as follows:

1. Short-term technical indicators show a bearish trend: On December 18, Ethereum's current price is 2855, the daily candlestick has significantly retreated after reaching the EMA15 trend resistance point, MACD is declining with decreasing volume, and the DIF and DEA have formed a death cross. The KDJ indicator is diving downwards and spreading, and major indicators all show a bearish trend; the four-hour candlestick has broken the previous low, although there is a slight rebound demand, the main force is highly controlled, and there are no clear signs of a bottoming out, making the risk of bottom fishing extremely high.

​

2. Long and short signals are difficult to judge: On one hand, there are institutions increasing their holdings, and the funds for the spot Ethereum ETF are flowing back, with the weekly chart also showing a reverse head and shoulders pattern, a classic bullish signal, and there is strong support formed by a large amount of chips around $2800; on the other hand, there are macroeconomic headwinds, and large whales occasionally sell off in the short term. The RSI indicator has shown bearish divergence, and if the price breaks below the key support level, it may trigger further selling.
