ETH this week's market movement has been a bit frustrating. The daily chart has been stubbornly flat, forming a straight line, but I think this might not be a bad thing.

From the perspective of Chan Theory, Ethereum has actually been oscillating repeatedly within the 30-minute level of the pen central zone. To put it simply, it's accumulating strength—the longer the sideways consolidation, the greater the potential for a subsequent rise. Many experienced traders understand this logic.

The key now is to wait for the 30-minute three-buy signal to appear. Once this signal is confirmed, it will be the true trumpet for the bulls to push higher. I will update the analysis approach immediately when that happens, so everyone should not rush to act now. Patience and waiting for confirmation signals are much more reliable than blindly chasing highs. Consolidation is preparation, and the three-buy is the total attack—this pattern has been verified countless times in Chan Theory.
