Three Driving Forces Behind the Ether-Bitcoin Exchange RateAt a glance:
Higher tech stocks tend to boost ETHBTC, while a higher USD tends to depress it
Bitcoin supply is perfectly inelastic, which contributes to its high volatility
Together, ether and bitcoin account for over 60% of the total value of the world’s cryptocurrencies, but the exchange rate between the two has varied widely over time.
So, what drives the Ether-Bitcoin exchange rate? The ETHBTC cross rate responds to many factors, but here are three of them.
Technology Stocks
On days when the tech heavy Nasdaq 100 index rallies, ether tends to rise versus bitcoin. This may be because ether, which is the currency of the Ethereum smart contract network, has more practical applications in the technology space than bitcoin, which is mainly held as a store of value and a medium of exchange.
U.S. Dollar
On days when the U.S. dollar is higher, ether tends to underperform versus bitcoin.
Bitcoin Supply
While ether can be supplied up to 18 million coins per year, bitcoin supply is limited to a maximum of 21 million coins ever, of which about 19 million already exist. Every four years, the supply of new bitcoin drops in half. In the past, halvings have often been preceded by large runups in bitcoin prices and tremendous increases in the amount of revenue that bitcoin miners are paid for matching transactions. Ether is both more volatile than bitcoin and highly correlated to bitcoin. As such, when bitcoin rises or falls versus the U.S. dollar, ether often moves to an even greater degree.

Bitcoin BTCUSDT Price analysis (4h)Greetings, fellow traders and esteemed members of the TradingView community!
Today, let us delve into the 4-hour timeframe of BTCUSDT and explore the potential price direction for the upcoming days.
From a meticulous technical analysis standpoint, we observe the price undergoing a breakout from a triangular pattern. This development may potentially trigger a significant downward movement, with a possible target of the 26675 level, which represents the last support level from the preceding uptrend.
The MACD indicator diligently tracks the price action, providing valuable insights, yet it does not currently exhibit any major signs of a trend reversal.
Additionally, the RSI, having accurately signalled a volatility spike preceding the breakdown of BTC price from the triangle, has further validated our earlier prediction:
Pay close attention to the price action around the support level, as heightened selling pressure could potentially breach this level. However, should the support hold steadfast, it may present an attractive opportunity for long trades.
Remember to employ prudent risk management techniques, such as setting appropriate stop-loss orders and adhering to your predetermined risk tolerance. By doing so, you can navigate the market with a greater sense of security and confidence.
Stay vigilant, adapt to changing market conditions, and trade wisely. Wishing you successful and risk-managed trading endeavours!

Today is FOMC day where rate hike will be announced and will have huge impact on whole market , not only traditional but crypto as well.
We usually get a move to both side around (%3) liquidating all the high leverages which we call ( sweeping the highs and lows) after than the move will come
IMO its a capitulation candle downwards around 23K. could be worse .

Breaking the Bears: Bitcoin Bullish MomentumHello @TradingView community. Welcome in @Vestinda Bitcoin price analysis.
Reports about bank collapses, stablecoins, and interest rate increases appear to be powerful enough to increase the price of bitcoin. Well, Bitcoin almost hovers above $28,000 amid banking instability.
On the other side, we discover chart patterns that suggest a market recovery from the bear trend as Bitcoin surged in the beginning of March 2023 by approximately +80%.
1. Price on long term scale remains in Rising Channel
2. Strong breakout of Downtrend Resistance
3. EMA Ribbon bullish breakout
Which means price is likely to continue growth inside Rising Channel, and according to identical move characteristics from 2019, we might land on this move in the upper 40s or low 50s. For sure it is our High-hopes, and in general, the price movement may differ both in time and appearance.
What is Rising Channel in trading?
A rising channel is a technical analysis tool used by traders to identify an uptrend in the market. It is formed when the price of a security moves between two parallel trendlines, with the upper trendline representing resistance and the lower trendline representing support. The rising channel can be used to identify potential entry and exit points for trades, as well as to determine whether a security is in an uptrend or downtrend. Traders can also use it to set stop-loss orders and take profits when trading, a rising channel helps traders determine where the current price is in reference to the median of the market.

ArShevelev /// Bitcoin's Decline is InevitableThe fact is that a lot of people just don't care about Bitcoin anymore. If you do a Google search for "Bitcoin," it will lead to 623 million results. But if you do a similar search for "bitcoin price," there are only 157 million results, and the vast majority of them are not important news articles or price analysis.
And the reason why Bitcoin prices remain stuck in sideways channels or breakdowns is because most people don't care about it anymore. Price action is boring.
They're waiting to see how much they can make by buying low and selling high, and they're not so concerned about the reality that such a purchase demands endurance and perseverance.
Most people are used to trading in 2022 on futures in a continuous downtrend, but now the time has come for a trend shift, and we see the movements altering each other up and down, causing the market to go sideways.
If there is a long-term buyer on bitcoin, I am confident that it will purchase quietly and change the public attention away from purchasing but towards selling. Remember that.
Things might change if the price goes below the 20600 level, which I believe is critical for momentum. Yet, if 20600 is broken, we will almost certainly witness a double bottom attempt.
Kind regards

BITCOIN 1h Update 08 December 2022Hey is is Artem update on BTCUSD price action on 1h TF. Looking for movement in range 16660 up to 17200 during weekend.
Price consolidating at rising support lines before fake breakdown and rise. According to this behaviour I am thinking price will rise afterwards and break Green Resitance line to move up 17200.
Bitcoin FTX Futures brokenHere's an example how everything is looking completely upside down with FTX.
Forward Futures trading at 7% premiums while price marking down is unnatural behaviour.
Of course we can easily compare to Deribit Futures everything is looking completely destroyed as Premiums are marking severe discounts. But this is actually what I was expecting for months to happen.
A bottom can only be found if we have Futures trading in Backwardation as they are right now. However, I expect them to sustain this way maybe for a week or two to be legit.
If they normalize too quickly is a sign that there is too much bullishness in the system.
The fact that we have Binance and OKX perpetual swaps trading aggressive above spot prices is also another bearish sign as margin traders are positioning themselves long on leverage... what could go wrong?
Things are looking ugly right now and we have no clue what other side effects are yet to bleed into the market as this start affecting balance-sheet of lenders, FTX partners, and other big institutions that are exposed to the FTX nightmare.
In terms of Elliot waves, three scenarios can be considered for The first scenario is to start the upward movement from now
In the second scenario, we can move up from now on, but in the future we will see weakness in the upward direction and we will move down again within 5 waves (flat correction pattern will be formed).
In the third scenario, we have to move down through 5 waves, of which 3 waves have been completed so far and we are now in wave 4. So we have to have another downward wave. The maximum amount of this decrease is up to the level of 14 thousand dollars.
Which scenario do you agree with?
Symmetrical triangle formation No directional breakout on BTC in the past few days yet, but on drawing and spotting trendlines I could see the formation of a symmetrical triangle chart pattern.
Take note: BTC is still ranging as it is, day traders should be more careful trading this period as Bitcoin volatility could be immerse.
BTC SHORT AND BEARISH AFTER FAILED HTF MARKET STRUCTURE BREAKAfter a failed Market Structure Break on the Daily TF, Bitcoin breaks into taking internal liquidity upwards and with high probability to soon target Higher Timeframe Liquidity downwards. An liquidity void is found at a downtrend retrace up to 50 to 61.8 fibonnacci for a very high probability short position.
BTC Macro Trend Line BrokenI am not in a BTC position currently, though this is a huge occurrence in the bigger time frames.
I will be watching this with hawk eyes over the next few days. If we find support, this could be the sign of a macro reversal.
I am still extremely bearish though, especially when it comes to issues on the world finance stage. Let's not even begin to talk about the geopolitical factors that could sway the price of all asset classes at the moment. I covered all of this in my October finance report.
These are some very intense markets we are trading in right now. Let me know what you think about this.

Now is the best time to buy BitcoinIn terms of Elliott wave counting rules and regulations
Wave 1 is over and now we are in the fall of wave 2
If we predict correctly and maintain the bottom level of wave 1, we can enter wave 3 and move upwards with strength.
The validity of this analysis is until the level of 17,660 is not broken down
