Yesterday I traded most of my ETH for BTC, planning on adding again afterwards. Sadly ETH is taking a shit as ETH BTC is clearly in a heavy bear market.
Why does this matter? ETH is currently 44% BTC, meaning that as soon as BTC goes up BTC flows out of ETH as it provides more profitability.
Also, there are many ETH/BTC longs underwater about to be liquidated (if they haven't already).
Lastly, BTC looks like at the end of its distribution phase, if it does have a correction then it will be massive and ETH will most likely be torn down into a frenzy sell too.
It seems like ETH can't win, confirmation of large BTC waves ahead + sideways is the only thing that will make ETH turn bull again.
- Entering again when BTC enters its B wave, I can already smell the news referring to BTC as a bubble, fraud and Myspace; while ETH is Facebook with corporate alliance backing it. --- Be ready boys. ; or
- My BTC count is wrong, it continues bullish, stabilizes sideways with only minor corrections; in this case, I'd add ETH after a 311 or 322 breakout.
