While Bitcoin (BTC) has reached new all-time highs this month, the Ethereum price has failed to experience a significant rally, befitting its position as the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. However, a crypto analyst suggests that this bearish price action could soon end, as Ethereum (ETH) appears to be repeating its breakout pattern from the 2017 to 2018 cycle. Based on this analysis, the ETH price could be on track to hit a remarkable new price target above $20,000.
Ethereum Price Eyes New Target Above $20,000
Mr Tycoon, a TradingView analyst, has shared his intense bullish outlook for the Ethereum price, suggesting that the number one altcoin in the crypto market could surge as high as $23,000 this cycle. The analyst shared his optimism about Ethereum’s recent price action, emphatically declaring that the altcoin is about to “send higher soon.”
Ethereum last experienced a record-breaking price surge during the 2021 bull market, when it achieved an ATH above $4,800. The TradingView analyst has revealed that Ethereum’s fractal in the previous bull cycle versus this current cycle follows a similar pattern, indicating an imminent rally.
Mr. Tycoon presented a detailed chart comparing Ethereum’s price movements in the 2017-2021 and 2021-2025 cycles. In the earlier four-year cycle, Ethereum hit a macro bottom in 2019, experiencing price fluctuations before recording a significant rally after Bitcoin broke an all-time high in 2021.
A similar price action is also seen in this current four-year cycle, where Ethereum hit its macro bottom in 2022 and then declined significantly. Based on the analyst’s chart, Bitcoin reached an ATH in 2024, just like it did in the 2021 bull cycle.
The TradingView analyst noted that historically, Ethereum starts pumping after Bitcoin enters a price discovery. This implies that Bitcoin typically leads the market cycles, and once it finds a new ATH, ETH tends to follow, experiencing a notable rally.
With this in mind, Mr. Tycoon predicts a significant price increase for Ethereum, suggesting that it could surge past previous all-time highs and rise above $23,000. This impressive price rally would represent a 557% increase from the current market value of ETH.
Analyst Reveals Best Time To Buy ETH
While Ethereum is trading at $3,586 as of writing, a crypto analyst identified as ‘Crypto Ash’ has projected that a rally to $10,000 or $15,000 is highly probable for the top altcoin this bull cycle.
The analyst revealed that the best time to start accumulating Ethereum was in December 2024, which represents a prime entry point for investors. His analysis indicates that, historically, Ethereum has experienced significant price growth from January to April after each Bitcoin halving year. This suggests that investors who begin purchasing ETH tokens as early as December may be well-positioned for gains if the ETH price rallies in Q1 2025.
