Ethereum continues to push higher, but a key resistance zone is causing a pause in the upward movement. Every day brings new positive developments for the crypto market, from ETF to tokenization news. This pattern reflects the typical progression of a crypto bull cycle. The latest SEC decision regarding a crypto-based ETF adds to the bullish backdrop.
However, a rising dollar index and a slowing momentum of U.S. stock market are having a short-term negative impact. Another reason for the current slowdown is the presence of massive resistance. The long-term trendline from the 2021 top, combined with the horizontal 4100 level, has formed a major resistance zone for Ether.

In the short term, ETHUSD may have formed another flag pattern. If it breaks to the upside, a retest of the 4100 resistance is possible. Today, dovishness level of Powell and the number of dissents in the rate-hold decision could significantly influence the price action.
