ETH: Why This Range Trade Still Favors the BullsEthereum / US DollarCOINBASE:ETHUSDMKT_TRADEWhile the S&P, Nasdaq, and Dow sold off following this week's FOMC rate decision, Ethereum held firm. That divergence is a signal. In this breakdown we walk through our two foundational tools, Previous Period High/Low/Mid/Close and PriceMap, to build and stress test a market thesis in real time. Price is holding above its monthly directional, the classic pivot that defines trend bias. With the R level sitting beneath the market, sentiment reads bullish. As long as the R level acts as a support floor rather than flipping to a resistance ceiling, the uptrend structure stays intact. The near term trigger is the previous week's low. Holding above it, even as broader risk assets sell off, signals underlying strength and keeps the bull case alive. Losing it doesn't kill the thesis, it just shifts the read toward the deeper monthly R level as the next area to reassess risk. Bottom line: this isn't about calling a breakout. It's about knowing exactly where the thesis breaks, and trading with that clarity instead of the noise.
