However, the altcoin failed to end the month in profit, making April its fourth consecutive month with a negative performance. According to the latest on-chain data, the Ethereum price seems to be sitting above a crucial support level, which could determine the altcoin\u2019s trajectory over the next few weeks.<\/p>\n<h2><b>ETH Price At Risk Of Falling To $1,772<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>In a May 3 post on the X platform, prominent crypto analyst Ali Martinez <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ali_charts\/status\/1918673903108723004\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">revealed<\/a> that the price of Ethereum might be at a critical juncture that could decide its short-term future. Based on the latest on-chain data, the altcoin is at risk of falling to around $1,500 should it lose this support level in the coming days.<\/p>\n<p>This on-chain evaluation of the Ethereum price revolves around the average cost bases of several Ethereum investors. In crypto trading, cost-basis analysis determines a price level\u2019s capacity to serve as support or resistance based on the volume of coins last acquired by investors in the region.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/GqBWe2zWEAAgpxI?format=jpg&amp;name=medium\" alt=\"Ethereum price\" width=\"1199\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As shown in the above chart, the size of the dot (green and red) represents and directly corresponds to the number of Ether tokens bought within a price region. The larger the circle, the higher the amount of tokens bought in and around the price zone, and the stronger the resistance or support level.<\/p>\n<p>According to data from IntoTheBlock, more than 6.36 million ETH tokens were purchased by 4.5 million addresses within the price range of $1,772 and $1,824 (at an average price of $1,799). As explained earlier, the high buying activity within this price zone has led to the formation of a major support level just beneath the current price.<\/p>\n<p>The Ethereum price is expected to bounce back when it falls to this level. The rationale behind this expectation is that when the ETH price returns to around $1,772, investors with their cost bases in and around this level are likely to defend their positions by buying more tokens, helping the price to stay afloat the support region.<\/p>\n<p>However, the highlighted chart shows that the price levels beneath the $1,772 support level have significantly less investor activity. This suggests that the Ethereum price could fall to around $1,500 without catching a break if $1,772 is breached. On the flip side, the price of ETH could travel to as high as $2,100 if this support level remains unbreached, as no significant resistance lies ahead.<\/p>\n<h2><b>Ethereum Price At A Glance<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>As of this writing, the ETH token is valued at around $1,830, reflecting an almost 1% increase in the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/OAHQOmfX\/\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"1674\" height=\"1384\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The quick burst of bullish momentum in the crypto market in the closing weeks of April saw the Ethereum price close the month above $1,800.
