Ethereum Targets Lower Range As Resistance Zone Comes Into Play

Ethereum is approaching a critical resistance zone as recent recovery attempts begin to lose momentum. With price action still showing signs of a corrective structure, attention is shifting toward the possibility of a move back to lower range levels if sellers step in at key resistance.

HTF Range Aligns With Ethereum TCT Distribution Model

According to crypto analyst The Composite Trader, Ethereum is currently developing within a well-defined higher timeframe (HTF) range that aligns with a TCT distribution model. This structure suggests that price action may be building toward a potential bearish rotation, with the broader range still intact and guiding market behavior.

The analyst emphasized that full confirmation has not yet been achieved, as a clean and high-quality third tap is still required to validate the setup. That third interaction with resistance is a key component of the model, often acting as the trigger point for a more decisive move toward the lower end of the range.

While waiting for this confirmation, the expert focuses on lower-timeframe (LTF) opportunities, particularly short-term accumulation setups that can drive the price upward into the anticipated third tap zone. He further explained that some of his most successful trading sequences come from linking these timeframes, capturing gains on the way up through LTF longs, then rotating those profits into short positions near HTF resistance. 

By treating the entire process as one continuous sequence rather than separate trades, it becomes possible to compound gains more aggressively. This strategy is rooted in the concept of ‘TCT creating TCT’, where patterns on lower timeframes build into and reinforce structures on higher timeframes.
