The cryptocurrency market has staged an impressive comeback in Q2, with Ethereum (ETH) leading the charge — rallying over 36.5% from a low of $1,385 to trade near $2,450. This renewed strength is flowing into the altcoin space, and Arbitrum (ARB) is now beginning to catch up with the momentum.
ARB has posted steady gains over the past 90 days, and now, a closer look at the chart reveals a potentially bullish fractal structure — one that closely mirrors its previous breakout setup from late 2024.

Familiar Fractal Signals Major Rally Ahead
Zooming in on the daily chart, ARB seems to be repeating a nearly identical structure from late last year.
Back in late 2024, ARB was trading inside a falling wedge following a long downtrend. After breaking out, it formed a smaller consolidation wedge — and once the price moved above the 100-day and 200-day moving averages, ARB exploded with a 121% rally.

Now, in mid-2025, a very similar pattern is unfolding:
- Another falling wedge has formed and already broken out
- A smaller broadening wedge is forming just after the breakout
- Price is consolidating just below the 100-day and 200-day MAs — the same zone where the last breakout launched
These repeating structures are not just visually similar — they’re happening in the same technical zones, which gives strong reason to believe a rally could be brewing.
What’s Next for ARB?
To confirm the bullish fractal, ARB will need to clear the 100-day MA and decisively reclaim the 200-day MA, which currently sits near $0.466. Doing so would act as the technical trigger to attract fresh buying and could kickstart a breakout, much like what occurred during the previous cycle.
If the fractal plays out again, the first major target sits around $0.46, representing a +30% potential move from current levels. Beyond that, a breakout from the descending resistance trendline could unlock a much larger upside continuation — possibly confirming a long-term bottom.
