TL;DR<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ethereum tracks rising global liquidity, with analysts warning a breakout could send ETH toward $7,000.
\nOver $6 billion in shorts risk liquidation at $4,900, raising chances of a sharp squeeze.
\nBitMine treasury and ETF inflows boost demand, with $2.8B entering spot ETH funds in August.<\/p>\n

Liquidity and Macro Drivers<\/h2>\n

Ethereum is holding firm above $4,550 as macro conditions improve and liquidity expands. Analyst Merlijn The Trader noted that Ethereum is tracking global M2 liquidity, showing a close relationship between monetary supply and price action.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe $ETH accumulation phase is history. Bull run phase is active,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

His chart showed Ethereum rising in step with liquidity levels since mid-2025. He warned,<\/p>\n

\u201cIgnore this signal, and you\u2019ll be buying ETH at $7K instead of $4.4K.\u201d<\/p>\n

ETHEREUM IS TRACKING GLOBAL LIQUIDITY<\/p>\n

The $ETH<\/a> Accumulation phase is history.
\nBull run phase is active.<\/p>\n

Liquidity curls higher and Ethereum follows.
\nThis is not \u201chopium.\u201d This is macro.<\/p>\n

Leverage is another factor to watch. Analyst Rekt Fencer said<\/a> more than $6 billion in Ethereum short positions could be forced to close if the price reaches $4,900. \u201cMassive short squeeze is coming soon,\u201d they wrote.<\/p>\n

Forced liquidations occur when markets move against traders holding leveraged short bets. Covering those positions can accelerate buying pressure, especially near major resistance zones. Ethereum has risen 4% in the past day and almost 9% weekly, bringing such levels within reach.<\/p>\n

Market Structure and Technical Levels<\/h2>\n

Analyst Daan Crypto Trades highlighted that Ethereum briefly cleared its all-time high before retracing. He pointed<\/a> to inefficiencies left by the \u201cPowell candle\u201d and said the four-hour trend remains strong, with ETH doubling since July without retesting lower ranges.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe 4H 200MA\/EMA is catching up quickly and corresponds with the range low of this area,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

He added that a sustained move above $5,000 would likely confirm a new phase of price discovery, while the structure remains bullish unless Ethereum drops below $4,000. In a later update, he stressed that $4,900 is the key resistance and $4,000\u2013$4,100 is the main support area.<\/p>\n

$ETH<\/a> Has been holding on to its diagonal support as it has been chopping around in this price region.<\/p>\n

All in all, the main levels to watch are the 2021 all time high level around $4.9K and the local support at around $4K-$4.1K.<\/p>\n

Institutional Buying and ETF Flows<\/h2>\n

Institutional demand is adding to momentum. As CryptoPotato<\/em> reported<\/a>, BitMine has accumulated 1.7 million ETH worth $7.9 billion in just over two months. That represents 1.4% of the total Ethereum supply and surpasses the pace of Bitcoin accumulation by corporate treasuries.<\/p>\n

Spot Ethereum ETFs in the United States are also drawing strong inflows. More than $2.8 billion entered ETH spot funds in August, with inflows picking up pace again this week. Trading volumes for Ether treasuries last week overtook those for Bitcoin treasuries, showing renewed institutional focus on Ethereum.<\/p>\n
