While ETH rallied as much as 5% on Tuesday, BTC\u2019s return has been limited to only 1%.<\/p>\n<p>Data reveals that Monday has consistently recorded the highest long liquidations, with spikes topping 300,000 ETH during April and June\u2019s drawdowns. The pattern underscores how weekend optimism flips into losses once liquidity returns early in the week.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.cointelegraph.com\/uploads\/2025-08\/0198e75c-d0fc-701b-9222-c0cc5e3e3fa8\" alt=\"Cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin Price, Markets, Cryptocurrency Exchange, Binance, Price Analysis, Market Analysis, Altcoin Watch, Ether Price, Ethereum Price, Ethereum ETF\" \/><figcaption><em>Weekly Trends in Ether long liquidations.

Binance\u2019s Estimated Leverage Ratio (ELR) on ETH has surged to a record 0.53, up dramatically from just 0.09 in mid-2020.<\/p>\n<p>ELR tracks the ratio of open interest to exchange reserves, offering a gauge of how heavily traders are using leverage. Higher values suggest excessive optimism and a greater risk of forced liquidations.<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-auto relative\">\n<div>\n<section class=\"etoro-section\">\n<p class=\"etoro-disclaimer\">Crypto investments are risky and highly volatile.

Crypto analyst Amr Taha points out that Binance exhibited over $1.65 billion in stablecoin deposits this month, marking the second such surge above $1.5 billion in August.<\/p>\n<p>These inflows signal fresh liquidity preparing to enter the market. Meanwhile, Ether withdrawals from Binance totaled nearly 208,000 ETH, i.e., $1 billion, across Sunday-Monday, suggesting investors are moving assets into cold storage, reducing sell-side pressure and reinforcing long-term bullish positioning.<\/p>\n<p>The combination of rising leverage and institutional accumulation leaves ETH at a crossroads. While liquidity inflows and exchange outflows tilt bullish, extreme leverage heightens the risk of near-term volatility.<\/p>\n<h2>Ether bulls must reclaim $4,700 to regain control<\/h2>\n<p>Ether rallied strongly on Tuesday, climbing to $4,579 after absorbing liquidity from a daily order block and retesting long-term support at $4,350. Momentum on lower timeframes remains constructive, but sustainability is key for continuation.<\/p>\n<p>On the mid-term chart, price action is currently filling a bearish fair value gap between $4,600 and $4,450, with risk of extension toward the $4,000 level if selling pressure persists.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.cointelegraph.com\/uploads\/2025-08\/0198e761-47f0-7010-a4a8-dc1c74740c6e\" alt=\"Cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin Price, Markets, Cryptocurrency Exchange, Binance, Price Analysis, Market Analysis, Altcoin Watch, Ether Price, Ethereum Price, Ethereum ETF\" \/><figcaption><em>Ether four-hour chart. Source: <\/em><em>Cointelegraph\/TradingView<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For this gap to be invalidated, ETH must reclaim prior equal lows near $4,662 and secure a decisive daily close above $4,700. Such a move would align both lower and higher time frame structures, restoring bullish momentum and opening the path toward $5,000.<\/p>\n<p>Conversely, sustained consolidation below $4,700 would suggest the rally is being driven primarily by short covering, where shorts closing their positions generate temporary upward pressure, while sellers seek to re-enter at higher levels to drive price lower.<\/p>\n<p data-ct-non-breakable=\"undefined\">Failure to reclaim $4,700 keeps ETH locked in a decisive range between $4,700 and $4,350, with a break beneath $4,350 likely triggering a deeper correction in line with seasonality and a potential market structure shift.<\/p>\n<p>Until then, $4,700 remains the pivot separating a correction from a renewed bullish leg.<\/p>\n<p>*********************************<\/p>\n<p>If one of the paying programs on our Monitor appeals to you, please support <em>EmilyNews<\/em> by registering for it on our website.
