Why Ethereum traders are closely watching ETH/BTC charts — Spoiler alert, it’s bullish

After lagging Bitcoin for most of 2024, Ethereum appears to be in the early stages of a bullish trend reversal. Here’s why traders are closely watching the ETH/BTC pair.

Ether (ETH) is currently exhibiting its most significant weekly gains since May 2024. While BTC’s momentum has stalled over the past 24 hours, ETH's price reached a quarterly high of $2,956, and the renewed price action triggered a 6% uptick for the ETH/BTC chart.

With Ethereum briefly leading Bitcoin (BTC) for the first time in months, the altcoin-BTC pair has caught the market’s attention for a potential trend reversal.

A pivotal daily breakout on the Ether daily chart is one key reason for the revived interest in the ETH/BTC trend.

Bitcoin price action ‘tough to call’ after Fed rate decision — Zerocap

Bitcoin could rally as high as $65,000 following expected rate cuts later this week but analysts fear US election uncertainty could keep crypto asset prices lower for longer.

Bitcoin is “tough to call” and could fall as low as $53,000 or as high as $65,000 following the Federal Reserve’s decision on rates on Sept. 18, according to Australian crypto trading firm Zerocap.

Jonathan de Wet, the chief investment officer at Zerocap, told Cointelegraph the market is now anticipating a 62% chance that the Fed will cut rates by a minimum of 50 basis points (0.5%), which he said already contributed to the brief rally that saw Bitcoin touch $60,000 on Sept. 13.

However, Wet said the price action is “tough to call” due to lingering uncertainty around the impact of rate cuts in the short term and is only complicated further by the precariousness of the upcoming US election in November.
