Ethereum · 2026-07-27
That day's view: On July 27 ETH opened at $1954.72 and closed at $1892.53, with an intraday high of $1981.24 and low of $1882.49, posting a 24-hour decline of 3.18%. Trading volume reached 342,451 ETH; versus the prior day, the reading must be interpreted alongside the historical window context. The four-period average perpetual funding rate came in at +0.00531%, roughly 0.97x BTC's, with no sign flip observed. Open interest fell from 2,369,500 to 2,313,865 ETH, a 2.35% drop, with price and OI retreating in tandem — chiefly reflecting long-side position closing or leverage unwinds, classified as (c). The Fear & Greed Index stands at 30, placing sentiment in the Fear zone. Near-term focus lies on the $1,880 support and $1,980 resistance; a loss of support could extend the weakness, while only a reclaim of the $1,980 area would invite a recovery setup.
