ETH +6.74% on Short-Term Rally Amid Broader Gains

On AUG 30 2025, ETH rose by 6.74% within 24 hours to reach $4548.02, ETH dropped by 30.21% within 7 days, rose by 1796.92% within 1 month, and rose by 3071.44% within 1 year.

The recent rally in EthereumETH-- comes amid a broader recovery in digital asset markets. Over the last month, ETH has surged 1796.92%, reflecting strong accumulation and sustained bullish momentum across key on-chain metrics. Analysts project that this performance has been driven by a combination of macroeconomic tailwinds and renewed institutional interest in blockchain-based assets.

The 6.74% increase on the day highlights the coin's ability to rebound from a seven-day drop of 30.21%. This short-term bounce is not uncommon in highly volatile digital assets and suggests a potential near-term bottoming process. While the 1-year gain of 3071.44% underscores the long-term trend, recent volatility remains a defining feature of ETH’s price behavior.

Backtest Hypothesis

To evaluate the predictive power of ETH’s short-term surges, a backtesting strategy has been outlined. The methodology defines a surge as any day where the close is at least 5% higher than the previous day’s close. Upon identifying such an event, a long position in ETHUSDETH-- is triggered at the next day’s open. For exit rules, a time-based approach is proposed—specifically, closing the position after 3 trading days. A stop-loss of 5% and a take-profit of 10% are also included to manage risk and capture gains. The test period covers the span from 2022-01-01 to 2025-08-29. If confirmed, the backtest will evaluate the strategy’s profitability and consistency across various market conditions.
