Chart Targets $7,000 by Mid-2026 Investor Mike Investing posted a weekly ETH chart projecting a long-term price target of $7,000 by May 2026. The chart shows ETH trading well above its 200-week moving average, now near $2,447. This level has acted as a base during previous market cycles. Remarkably, the post claims that during the recent correction, large firms including BlackRock, BitMine, and Vanguard increased their ETH holdings. While this activity isn’t confirmed in public filings, the chart suggests a strong return is possible over the next several months if ETH holds above support. I’m officially calling it… $ETH had its final hard pullback below $4,000 before it begins its multi month incoming rally.

The side-by-side view shows that both charts experienced a breakout, followed by a short pullback. In the earlier cycle, this setup led to a steep multi-month rally. The post claims, “ This $ETH setup looks so much like it did in 2017, ” placing the current phase just before a major leg up. Traders watching fractals often use these historical patterns as rough guides, but outcomes can vary. Coinbase Premium Hits Year-High On-chain analyst CryptoOnchain reported a sharp spike in Ethereum’s Coinbase Premium Gap, hitting +6.0 on October 10. This shows ETH was trading much higher on Coinbase than on global exchanges like Binance, often a sign of strong U.S. demand. “While the global market was selling, an overwhelmingly aggressive wave of buying was taking place on the Coinbase exchange,” the post said. This kind of buying often reflects institutional interest, especially when it shows up during market corrections.
