Summary
Ethereum stabilizes above the $1,745 base after a sharp decline through multiple Fibonacci levels. Short-term consolidation indicates a slowdown in selling pressure; however, the overall trend remains bearish below all major moving averages.
Only a sustainable reclaim of the $2,300–$2,500 zone will begin to reduce downward pressure. Until then, rallies are likely to be corrective within a prevailing downtrend, with the $1,745 level remaining the critical overall support to watch.
