Based on technical analysis principles, in upward breakouts, the highest peak in the pattern (A) serves as the price target. While Eth’s price broke out of the falling wedge pattern, it hasn’t yet reached the point (A). This suggests that Ethereum may still have another 4-6% gains to achieve before hitting this target.

Additionally, ETH price action continues to trend steadily above the 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages (SMAs) on the four-hour chart. These indicators offer support levels at $3,614 and $3,317, respectively, in case ETH price experiences a retracement.
The Ethereum 1-hour price chart shows the formation of another smaller ascending triangle with bullish price target implications. If Ethereum breaks out of this ascending triangle pattern, the price may rise 12% to touch $4,439.&nbsp;
However, bullish momentum may take it much higher than that. On its way up, Ethereum may contest with key resistance points around $4,100 and $4,496.
<h2 id="b-future-outlook-for-ethereum-price-b">Future Outlook for Ethereum Price</h2>
The <a href="https://coingape.com/price-predictions/ethereum-eth-price-prediction/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum price</a> outlook is bullish. The small surge in price witnessed last week was nothing compared to what was expected. In comparison to the rally Bitcoin experienced in the wake of its ETF approval, Ethereum may still have some upward journeying to do.
The relative strength index (RSI) for ETH sits at 68&nbsp; after retracing from the overbought region touched last week. Despite the retracement, the RSI is on an uptrend, which indicates bullish momentum is increasing.

Ethereum dominance also received a major boost following the recent price spike. After rising by 21%, ETH now has over 18% dominance over the entire crypto market industry.
<h2 id="b-bottom-line-b">Bottom Line</h2>
As the markets digest the Ethereum ETF news and ponder its implications, ETH price is gearing up for another run-up. The month of May has resulted in most crypto coins consolidating, but not Ethereum. For ETH price, it may have been the beginning of its bull run for this super cycle.
