As Ethereum (ETH) pushes toward the $4,500 resistance level, the Rainbow Chart has offered insights into how the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap could trade at the start of October.

At press time, Ethereum was trading at $4,480, posting modest gains of less than 0.1% in the past 24 hours. On the weekly timeframe, however, the asset has corrected by nearly 3%.

Notably, Etheruem is sitting above both its 50-day SMA of $4,298.89 and its 200-day SMA of $2,935.01. This alignment indicates a strong bullish trend, as the price remains comfortably above key support levels on both the short- and long-term moving averages. 

The 14-day RSI stands at 52.06, placing it in the neutral zone, indicating Ethereum is neither overbought nor oversold, leaving room for further upside without immediate risk of a technical correction.

Regarding the price prediction, the Ethereum Rainbow Chart, a long-term logarithmic model that maps ETH’s price history with color-coded zones, projects valuation bands for October 1, 2025. 

The chart gives investors a broad sense of whether Ethereum is undervalued, fairly priced, or in bubble territory, with each band reflecting sentiment ranging from extreme undervaluation at the bottom to speculative excess at the top.

For October 1, 2025, the chart places “Maximum Bubble Territory” between $14,819.59 and $21,112.66, while the “But have we earned it?” band stretches from $10,370.14 to $14,819.59. 

The “Is this The Flippening?” zone covers $7,132.4 to $10,370.14, while the “HODL!” range spans $4,915.41 to $7,132.4.  Moving lower, the “Steady…” band runs from $3,414.11 to $4,915.41, followed by the “Still cheap” zone at $2,402.36 to $3,414.11. 

Beneath that, the “Accumulate” band spans $1,712.5 to $2,402.36, the “Undervalued” range covers $1,241.5 to $1,712.5, and finally, the “Fire Sale” zone sits at the very bottom between $917.97 and $1,241.5.

As of September 21, 2025, Ethereum is trading at $4,480, placing it within the “Steady…” band of $3,414.11 to $4,915.41. 

This positioning suggests that Ethereum is currently fairly valued relative to its long-term historical trend, leaving room to potentially climb into the “HODL!” range if bullish momentum extends into October.
