The price of Ethereum had quite a rough performance last week and fell from the usual range above the level of $ 4,600 to less than $ 4,500. Despite the injection of Bullish Momentum in the market due to the interest rate reduction of the American Federal Reserve, the “King of Altcoins” failed to keep his meeting back to the $ 4,600 region.
According to the latest data on the chain, the Ethereum prize can prepare itself in the cold for a longer period of time, because investors seem to turn from the second largest cryptocurrency per market capitalization. However, the question is how deeply the price of ETH will fall in the coming weeks?
ETH price that runs a risk of efficiency up to $ 1500?
In a recent message on the social media platform X, pseudonymous crypto analyst Darkfost unveiled That the Ethereum investors can currently overflow from the market. This observation is based on the recent decline in the ETH Taker Buy-Sell Ratio about the world’s greatest crypto exchange through trade volume.

The Buy-Sell Ratio of Taker is an indicator of the chain that compares the share of the Taker Buy volumes with the Taker Sell Volumes on crypto exchanges. If the value of this metric is greater than one, this indicates that the purchase volume of Taker Buy is higher than the Taker Sell Volume on a crypto exchange. This trend usually points to the willingness of more traders to buy coins at a higher value on the trading platform.
In the meantime, a less than one value for the Buy-Sell ratio usually means that the sales volume of Taker is higher than the purchase volume of Taker on the stock exchange. Ultimately, this low value indicates that more sellers load their assets at a lower price, so that Bearish is crushed on the market.
According to Data from Cryptoquant, the Buy-Sell ratio of Ethereum Taker fell under the 1 threshold to around 0.87 on Friday 19 September. This last decline marked the third time that this measuring streak has fallen so low so far in 2025.
As observed in the graph above, Darkfost noted that the indicator fell to 0.85 in January and February 2025. This ratio fell together with the Bearish Trend, with the price of Ethereum fell to about the $ 1500 region.
From the time of publishing their post on X, Darkfost revealed that the 7-day average of the Taker Buy-Sell ratio was 0.93, which still has a shortage of the 1 threshold. The analyst on the chain concluded that although the Ethereum prize wants to break above the milestone of $ 5,000, more investors increasingly seem to bet against the rally of the Altcoin.
Although it is very unlikely that a recession is comparable to those in the first quarter of 2025, the last events on the chains suggest that the ETH prize could still be confronted in the coming weeks.
