$ERA
1. Project Fundamentals Investigation:

ERA, as the core token of the Caldera ecosystem, has its value closely linked to the long-term development of the project. Caldera focuses on the "Rollup as a Service (RaaS)" track, directly addressing the core pain points of high transaction costs and slow processing speeds on the Ethereum network—by completing and packaging a large number of transactions off-chain before submitting them to the Ethereum mainnet, significantly improving transaction efficiency while greatly reducing transaction fees. This technical approach not only aligns with the urgent demand for Layer 2 solutions in the current blockchain industry but also has clear application scenarios.

From the perspective of project support, the Caldera team members mainly come from technology giants and well-known academic institutions, possessing a solid foundation in technology research and development as well as market promotion; coupled with the capital injection from several renowned investment institutions, this has provided stable support for the continuous development and ecological construction of the project. This dual endorsement of "technical strength + financial support" constitutes an important support for the long-term value of the ERA token, and lays the fundamental basis for its price trend.

2. Market Trend Insights:

From the 4-hour level, the price trend of ERA looks very good. The recent price pullback is merely a minor level retracement and has not damaged the overall upward structure. The current price remains above the trend line and shows characteristics of "higher highs and higher lows," which is a typical signal of continuation of an upward trend, indicating that bullish forces are still dominant.

The EMA20 (1.41 USD) and EMA50 (1.36 USD) have formed a strong dynamic support zone, and the price has shown significant reliance on these two moving averages during the retracement process, providing a clear defensive position for the bulls.
The current RSI indicator is close to 60, and has not yet entered the overbought zone, which means there is still room for upward momentum in the short term, and there is no need to overly worry about the pressure of a temporary pullback.
Recent trading volume remains stable and aligns positively with price trends, indicating a high degree of market recognition for the current upward trend, with bullish pressure continuing to accumulate.

The "false breakout that lures in buyers before quickly reversing" that appeared on the 30-minute chart previously is a common method used by the main force in an upward trend to wash out positions—by creating short-term violent fluctuations to clear out floating capital, thus reducing resistance for future rises. The price has now returned to the key accumulation area, and various indicators are gradually repairing, indicating that a new breakout trend is brewing.


3. Entry strategy reference:

Based on the current technological landscape, it is recommended to position within the range of $1.47–$1.52.

Pullback Entry: If the price pulls back to this range and receives support from EMA20, you can gradually establish long positions.
Breakthrough retest: If the price breaks through the resistance level of $1.52 and then retests for confirmation, it is considered a strong entry signal, and one can add to the position accordingly.

Short-term target: $1.60–$1.65 (corresponding to the upper resistance level of the channel, where attention should be paid to whether the trading volume can support the breakout).
Mid-term target: above $1.75 (after breaking the short-term target, the upward space will further open, expected to challenge the previous high point).
The stop-loss level is set below $1.42. Once the price effectively breaks this level, it indicates that the short-term upward structure may be damaged, and decisive action should be taken to exit in order to avoid downside risk.
It is recommended to control the position at 10%-20% of the total funds to avoid excessive account risk due to short-term fluctuations, while reserving funds to respond to possible opportunities for increasing positions.

It is necessary to closely monitor the volume changes when the $1.52 breakthrough occurs. If it breaks out with increased volume, it indicates strong bullish momentum, and the probability of achieving the target level is relatively high.
If the price encounters resistance and falls back in the range of 1.60 to 1.65 USD, you may consider reducing some profitable positions while keeping the base position to observe the trend's continuity.
In the medium term, it is necessary to track the technological progress and ecological construction of the Caldera ecosystem. If the project's implementation does not meet expectations, it is essential to adjust the medium to long-term holding strategy in a timely manner.
ERA is currently in a resonant stage of "fundamental support + technical bullishness". Under the strict implementation of risk control, it is possible to seize layout opportunities in the range of $1.47 to $1.52, gradually advancing the trading plan based on trends and support levels.
