Ethereum reclaims $1,820 after nine months as traders watch $2,100 resistance, with $1,750 and $1,820 as key support levels.
Ethereum has reclaimed a key price level after months of lower lows and failed recovery attempts.
Traders are now watching whether the move signals a wider market structure shift.
Daan Crypto Trades said ETH flipped the $1,750 horizontal level back into support. He noted that Ethereum made a similar move during its 2025 recovery phase.
Merlijn The Trader also pointed to a separate claim of nearly $1,820. He said Ethereum has reclaimed a lost low for the first time in nine months.
The focus now is whether ETH can hold these levels and move toward $2,100. Analysts also named $1,750 and $1,820 as important invalidation zones.
Ethereum Turns Old Resistance Into Support
Daan Crypto Trades said Ethereum has reclaimed the $1,750 horizontal area.
This level had acted as support before turning into resistance during the downtrend. ETH has now moved back above it, according to his chart view.
$ETH Flipped the same $1750 horizontal level into support as it did in 2025.
This is the first time ETH retakes a previous support turned into resistance since this entire down trend. Also similar as the 2025 run.
Now I am definitely not expecting anything similar to that one,… https://t.co/5GCxinKtNi pic.twitter.com/VjKpsnIqTw

A support-to-resistance flip happens when a former support level blocks price after a breakdown.
A reclaim happens when buyers push price back above that same level. Traders often watch this pattern for early trend change signals.
Daan said this is the first such reclaim since Ethereum’s broader downtrend began.
He compared the structure with the 2025 run but avoided expecting the same outcome. He noted that market conditions were different during that earlier move.
$1,820 Reclaim Adds to Bottom Debate
Merlijn The Trader said Ethereum reclaimed a lost low near $1,820 after losing it in June.
He described the move as the first such reclaim in nine months. In his view, that makes the current structure different from earlier breakdowns.
ETHEREUM NEVER RECLAIMS A LOST LOW IN A DOWNTREND.
IT JUST PRINTED ITS FIRST ONE IN 9 MONTHS.
Every breakdown since the top: fresh lows, aggressively, no looking back. Three times in a row.

During the prior downtrend, ETH repeatedly broke lower without quickly reclaiming lost levels.
This time, the price moved back above the June breakdown zone in July. That shift has brought bottom formation back into market discussion.
However, a reclaim alone does not confirm a lasting bottom. Ethereum still needs follow-through above higher resistance to support that case. Traders will likely watch whether the $1,820 area holds on higher time frames.

$2,100 Target Becomes Next Test
Daan Crypto Trades placed his initial upside target near the $2,100 horizontal area. He said this zone has been important for Ethereum over several market cycles.
A move toward that level would test stronger resistance. The $2,100 area may decide whether ETH can extend its recovery beyond short-term momentum.
If buyers clear that zone, traders may reassess the wider market structure. If price fails there, ETH could remain inside a larger recovery range.
Risk levels remain clear in both analyses. Daan said a move below $1,750 would weaken the bullish setup. Merlijn said a three-day close below $1,820 would invalidate his claim.
