What happened
Ethereum’s spot price is under pressure, with ETH at $1,943.99 after a 5.01% daily decline. The move came alongside a 24-hour volume of $763.96 million on Binance spot, which is enough activity to confirm the break was real, not just a thin-market wobble.
The broader context is still mixed. FXEmpire said on November 11 that ETH had rejected a move above $2,400 and warned that a strong bearish reaction there could open another leg down if momentum worsened. That matters because the current price is now well below that level and even below the Bollinger middle band at $2,219.98, which keeps the market in a defensive posture.
Technical damage is clear, but momentum is stretched
The trend structure remains bearish: the 7-day moving average sits below the 20-day, which sits below the 50-day. ETH is also trading under the 200-day average of $2,148.86, which reinforces the medium-term damage.
At the same time, momentum is stretched enough to keep the door open for a reflex bounce. The daily RSI is 24.80, firmly in oversold territory, while stochastic readings at 8.67 and 6.94 show a market that has already been heavily sold. Price is also sitting near the lower Bollinger Band at $1,975.33, with %B at -0.0641, which suggests ETH is pressing into the lower end of its recent volatility envelope rather than breaking out of it.
The key limitation is that oversold does not equal reversal. MACD remains negative at -107.5319, and the funding rate on Binance Futures is only mildly positive at 0.0095%, which does not signal any strong conviction from derivatives traders one way or the other.
Levels that matter from here
The immediate line in the sand is the $1,964.41 pivot, with ETH currently trading below it. If that level cannot be reclaimed, the next test is the immediate support at $1,875.53, followed by strong support at $1,807.08.
On the upside, ETH first needs to recover $2,032.86, then $2,121.74. Above that, the 200-day average at $2,148.86 becomes the more important recovery marker because it would pull price back above a major trend reference rather than just staging a dead-cat bounce.
Flows improved, but not enough to change the trend
There is one constructive datapoint: CryptoBriefing reported that US spot Ethereum ETFs took in a net $53.02 million on November 4, 2026, ending a weeklong outflow streak that had seen roughly $514.8 million leave the products. BlackRock’s ETHA was the main buyer. That is a meaningful change in flow direction, but it is still only one positive day after a much larger withdrawal run, so it should be treated as a stabilization signal rather than a confirmed turn.
That flow backdrop lines up with AInvest’s Nov. 2 note that U.S. ETF inflows and outflows were a critical indicator and that weak demand had been part of the November setup. The point is not that ETFs have solved the trend — they have not — but that they remain one of the few outside variables that can influence whether this selloff starts to exhaust itself.
Scenario framework
If ETH can hold the $1,875.53 area and reclaim the $1,964.41 pivot, the oversold readings raise the odds of a short-covering rebound toward $2,032.86 and potentially $2,121.74. A move back above the 200-day average would be the cleaner sign that the market is trying to stabilize rather than just trading a pause in the downtrend.
If $1,875.53 fails, the next reference is $1,807.08. Below that, the market would be looking at a deeper break in the current structure, and the burden of proof would shift back to whether ETF flows or spot demand can produce any real absorption.
