Gold Prices Surge Amid US Yield Easing and Geopolitical Tensions: Market Outlook and Strategies 
Ethereum pared some of its gains after hitting a multi-month high, following Bitcoin's rise. It peaked at $3,446 and is currently trading at around $3306.
Ethereum (ETH) has seen its open interest in futures contracts rise significantly, crossing the $20 billion mark for the first time. This increase of over 11% shows strong confidence among traders that Ethereum’s price will continue to rise. The milestone reflects a growing bullish sentiment in the market for Ethereum.
Blobs in Ethereum, introduced by the EIP-4844 proposal, are large chunks of data that can be temporarily stored on the blockchain. They act like "containers" for information, helping to manage data without permanently occupying space. Blobs are deleted after about 18 days, preventing clutter on the blockchain over time.
Ethereum has exceeded its blob space limit of 3 blobs per block, highlighting increased demand for transactions. This could lead to higher fees and longer transaction times, indicating ongoing challenges with the network's capacity and efficiency. The rise in blob usage is a positive sign of growing interest in Ethereum but shows the need for improvements to handle the increased load. Discussions about solutions include adjusting gas limits or optimizing layer 2 solutions to enhance scalability.
This week, Ethereum (ETH) ETFs saw significant outflows, with withdrawals totaling about $39 million on November 18 and over $102 million in just three days. Major funds like BlackRock's ETHA and Grayscale's ETHE had the largest losses, but BlackRock's fund did attract some inflows. The ongoing outflows suggest cautious sentiment among investors, which could impact Ethereum's price in the short term.
Technical Analysis: Key Support and Resistance Levels
Bullish momentum may be achievable if Ethereum maintains above $3,000. The key near-term resistance is at $3,000, with significant upward movement targeting $3,200 or even $3,400. A robust bullish trend will only materialize above $3,400.
Immediate Support Levels and Future Predictions
Conversely, immediate support is around $2,770. A fall below this threshold will confirm continued bearish momentum, potentially leading to price drops to $2,500 or $2,300. A breach below $2,000 could see Ethereum plummet to $1,800.
Trading Strategies for Investors
Traders may consider selling on rallies around $3395-3400, with a stop-loss set around $4000 and a target price of $2250.
