In Ethereum updateanalyst Luca offered a detailed analysis of the leading altcoin, looking back at previous predictions by experts.

Luca explained that this expected continuation was aimed at the next big support, the high timeframe support the range marked in purple. That’s exactly the scenario that played out, with price now confirming a bounce on the low time frames, doing exactly as expected.

From this confirmed support, Luca believes the most likely outcome is a reversal back to the upside. However, he stressed the need for confirmation before fully committing to the long side: “Before I start leaving my hedges, I want to see further signs of strength and a clear bottom formation to confirm that this level is holding,” Luca stated.
The analyst he concluded with a warning: if price were to break below this established range, it would completely invalidate the idea that the move is a simple corrective wave 2 on the high timeframes. Instead, the collapse would signal permanent structural decay, which Luca intends to “avoid getting caught up in.”
