For confirmation, traders typically look for a daily or weekly close above the prior ATH with expanding volume versus its recent average to validate the breakout.

If the breakout fails, classical playbooks anticipate retests of the breakout zone, so risk controls commonly place invalidation slightly below the ATH zone rather than at round numbers.

According to Miles Deutscher, Ethereum ETH at 4,000 dollars today is fundamentally stronger than at its 4,800 dollar peak in 2021. According to Miles Deutscher, the improvement is driven by spot ETFs, 401(k) access, and greater regulatory clarity for stablecoins and DeFi that he says have transformed the current market, framing a more favorable trading setup for ETH versus 2021.
