He explained that the TD Sequential indicator has been highly precise in anticipating the altcoin\u2019s trends since April 2025, with every signal on the weekly timeframe validated by significant price action over the past year.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"size-large wp-image-896401\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/HISQCfOXAAIOggH.png?w=688&amp;resize=688%2C860\" alt=\"Ethereum\" width=\"688\" height=\"860\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In mid-April and mid-June 2025, the key indicator flashed two buy signals, resulting in multi-week rallies of 87% and 134%, respectively. Meanwhile, it flashed a sell signal in late August 2025, which accurately timed a 63% <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/is-it-time-to-sell-bitcoin-crash\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">correction<\/a> from its all-time high (ATH) levels toward the February lows.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the latest weekly signal \u201csuggests Ethereum is entering another corrective phase,\u201d which could push the price to new local lows. If selling pressure accelerates, Martinez shared an initial target of $1,900, followed by potential mid- and long-term targets of $1,565 and $1,090.<\/p>\n<h2>Time To Turn Cautious Or Bearish?<\/h2>\n<p>Blockchain analytics firm Santiment <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SantimentData\/status\/2054782500560367698?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">highlighted<\/a> that Ethereum realized profits rose to $74.58 million, its highest level in three weeks, even as the price fell 5.5% over the past three days. It noted that although this setup may seem \u201ccounterintuitive\u201d given the recent pullback, it does not necessarily mean investors should turn completely bearish.<\/p>\n<p>As the firm explained, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/ethereum\/from-120-to-900000-the-ethereum-trade-that-just-surfaced-on-chain\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">holders<\/a> with a much lower cost basis are the ones taking profit during the mid-May dip. These traders accumulated back in February and March when Ethereum was below $2,000 amid market uncertainty and geopolitical risks.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, those who purchased during that period are still in profit despite the recent decline and may \u201chave decided to sell while they feel they still have the opportunity to enjoy a profit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, on-chain activity volume increased, with 4-hour candles showing notable price compression around the $2,241 level. Santiment emphasized that more transactions generate more Profit and Loss (P&amp;L) realization events and that even modest individual profits elevate network-level total volumes.<\/p>\n<p>Based on the current Ethereum trader <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/ethereum-news\/ethereum-leverage-tells-two-different-stories-on-binance-and-okx-traders-face-a-fragile-setup\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">behavior<\/a>, the firm told investors they do not necessarily need to turn bearish, but should instead \u201clean cautious\u201d while waiting for clearer signals. \u201cWatch for deeper realized losses as a potential bottoming signal, and don\u2019t position aggressively until the distribution phase shows clear signs of ending,\u201d it concluded.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"size-large wp-image-896400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/ETHUSDT_2026-05-14_13-06-03.png?w=860&amp;resize=860%2C563\" alt=\"Ethereum, eth, ethusdt\" width=\"860\" height=\"563\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the market reacts to the latest crypto legislation, Ethereum (ETH) is flashing warning signs after a fresh technical sell signal emerged for the first time in months and a spike in on\u2011chain realized profits.
