Despite a week of profit-taking and consolidation after each long green wick, no significant pullback has occurred.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/xrp-price-prediction-will-whale-demand-drive-price-to-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FOMO-driven buying<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> suggests leverage on retracements, with weak hands exiting, positioning ETH for a potential rebound. However, this rally is largely driven by high-leverage futures, with open interest for both longs and shorts hitting a record $24.08 billion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While <a href=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/category\/bitcoin-news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bitcoin&#8217;s<\/a> \u2018slight\u2019 recovery adds optimism, Ethereum\u2019s breakout to $4K seems unlikely due to significant liquidity buildup, leaving the door open for a correction unless key conditions align.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>High leverage could present a strong resistance barrier<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the past 24 hours, total liquidations hit $283.12 million, with shorts taking the hardest hit, losing nearly $173 million. This comes as the market recovers, with most major coins posting strong gains, including ETH, which surged almost 9% to reclaim the $3.6K range.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Notably, ETH saw the largest liquidation order on Bitmax, totaling $2.81 million. Whales, who accumulated around 50 million ETH tokens, likely triggered a major short-squeeze, pushing the price into a key resistance zone.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"flex-shrink-0 flex flex-col relative items-end\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"pt-0\">\n<div class=\"gizmo-bot-avatar flex h-8 w-8 items-center justify-center overflow-hidden rounded-full\">\n<div class=\"relative p-1 rounded-sm flex items-center justify-center bg-token-main-surface-primary text-token-text-primary h-8 w-8\">In simple terms, Ethereum faced a \u2018tug-of-war\u2019 over the past week, with bulls and bears battling for control. The bulls ultimately won, as whales intervened, forcing short-sellers to buy back their positions, triggering a notable price surge.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_447148\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-447148\" style=\"width: 813px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-28-121258.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-447148 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-28-121258.png\" alt=\"Ethereum surge\" width=\"813\" height=\"625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-28-121258.png 813w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-28-121258-300x231.png 300w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-28-121258-768x590.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 813px) 100vw, 813px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-447148\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source : Coinglass<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, the real test begins. A short-term target of $4K could materialize if whales continue their strategy in the coming days, stabilizing the price around $3.8K. This could turn $3.8K into a psychological level, attracting new market interest and paving the way for a potential breakout to $4K.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>However, you must consider both internal and external factors. Bullish activity across various data sets is crucial to hitting the short-term target.<\/p>\n<p>Without it, Ethereum\u2019 surge could face a roadblock. With record-breaking activity in the derivatives market, even a small divergence could give bears an opportunity to exert pressure.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The result? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/LongShortRatio\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Short-sellers<\/a> may take control, leading to a short-term correction back to the $3.5K range.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Ethereum\u2019s surge likely at the mercy of whale support<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From this <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoquant.com\/asset\/eth\/chart\/market-indicator\/estimated-leverage-ratio?exchange=all_exchange&amp;window=DAY&amp;sma=0&amp;ema=0&amp;priceScale=log&amp;metricScale=linear&amp;chartStyle=line\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">chart<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it&#8217;s clear that more investors are taking on high-leverage risk in derivative trading, with the leverage ratio reaching an all-time high.\u00a0 This suggests that the recent surge is driven more by speculation than by fundamental factors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is unsurprising, considering that, as the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, Ethereum\u2019s price movements tend to mirror those of Bitcoin.
