Right now ETH is close to a buy zone, but the sell side is miles away.
Ethereum’s ETH is up a day after the world’s largest asset manager tracked ETH as it launched its performance in the US.
The token is currently challenging the $2,100 level after a 3% daily gain, but a prominent long-term analyst has identified what he calls a dream trade for ETH.
When to buy and sell ETH
Ali Martinez, a crypto analyst with nearly 165,000 X followers, noted in a recent post that a rally zone is just around the corner. He believes that investors should accumulate the largest altcoin at the level of around $1,070. Although the asset fell below $1,500 last year, it hasn’t traded anywhere near Martinez’s purchase target since December 2022, at the end of the bear market.
If investors are actually able to buy ETH at these low levels, then the “dream” profit scenario would be over $8,600. It is worth noting that the altcoin has never even come close to such peaks. It would need to generate a 300% upside from its current level (or 700% of the accumulation zone) and break the roughly $5,000 mark in 2025 to make the Martinez trade happen.

Bullish news for ETH
A fellow CW analyst noted two factors that could propel ETH to new highs soon. First, they noted that there is a significant uptick in active Ethereum addresses that “indicates market movements.” A similar pattern was seen near the bottom of the bearish period in 2025, and the price of ETH rose in the following months.

In a separate post, the analyst noted that Ethereum’s realized capitalization (calculated by the total value of all ETH coins based on the price they last moved, not the current market price) has turned positive again. This, they say, is a clear signal of “the beginning of a comprehensive vapor market.”
