Veteran market analyst Ali Martinez predicts that Ethereum, the second-largest crypto asset, will break out of its all-time highs and reach new prices after holding major support.
Bitcoin is less than 2% away from its all-time high of around $74,000, while Ethereum remains far behind its peak price. The altcoin king is 45.21% away from its highest trading price of $4,891 reached in November 2021.
It is worth noting that Ethereum’s performance gap compared to its peers is still evident. For example, Bitcoin has gained 13.53% in the past 30 days, Solana has gained 14.53%, and Ethereum has only gained 2.21% in the same period.
Ethereum’s recent performance has been disappointing as it pulled back to the major support level of $2,400, the lower boundary of its multi-month ascending channel. In the process of rebounding from the trendline, market expert Ali Martinez asserted that Ethereum will surpass its previous all-time high in the short term to reach unprecedented price levels.
Ethereum Ready to Breakout to $6,000
In an Oct. 29 post, Martinez shared that Ethereum looks ready to rise to $6,000 as it holds a key demand area. The market expert noted that Ether’s successful defense of the $2,400 support level signals an upcoming bullish run.
Notably, Ethereum rebounded from its lowest point of $2,391 on October 26, rising more than 11% from that level to reach its current market price. With support levels preventing further declines, Martinez asserts that Ethereum will surpass its previous high of $4,891 to reach an all-time high of $6,000.
This price target continues the ascending channel, with Martinez identifying the $6,000 area as the upper boundary of the asset’s price structure. It is worth noting that from the current market price, reaching the unprecedented level would mean a price increase of 123%.
