Mirroring alts - FET weekly update August 10 - 16thFetch.ai (FET) is advancing within a multi-degree Elliott Wave alignment that mirrors the structures seen across many other altcoins. At the Cycle degree, price is in Wave 1; at the Primary degree, a completed 1–2 structure suggests that Wave 3 is now underway; at the Intermediate degree, the same 1–2 formation implies another Wave 3; at the Minor degree, price is currently in Wave 1; and at the Minute degree, price is in the late stages of Wave 3, which is likely to end inside the highlighted Fair Value Gap (FVG).
Once this smaller Wave 3 completes, a short-lived Wave 4 pullback is expected, followed by Wave 5 to finish Minor Wave 1. A deeper retracement into the 0.5–0.764 Fibonacci zone would then be possible as part of Minor Wave 2 before the next sustained advance. The structure remains bullish as long as key support levels hold.
From a sentiment and liquidity standpoint, funding rates are positive, indicating a bias toward long positions. The liquidity heatmap shows only limited liquidity above current price, while there is more liquidity resting below — a configuration that could allow for a quick liquidity sweep before continuation.
This chart pattern is notably similar to many other altcoin structures right now, reflecting the high degree of correlation within the crypto market. If Bitcoin confirms its own bullish wave count, these aligned setups could trigger synchronized breakouts. Conversely, a BTC rejection could weigh on all correlated altcoins, including FET.
In the broader macroeconomic context, the CME FedWatch Tool indicates a 88,9% probability of a Federal Reserve rate cut at the September FOMC meeting. Markets often front-run such decisions, and this could act as a catalyst for impulsive Wave 3 rallies across crypto. However, heavily skewed bullish sentiment increases the risk of a “sell-the-news” event if traders over-leverage ahead of the announcement. Institutional accumulation likely occurred earlier in the cycle, leaving retail traders to drive the next legs higher.
As long as structural support remains intact and the anticipated Wave 4–5 sequence plays out, FET appears well-positioned for continuation — in alignment with the bullish setups currently visible across much of the altcoin market.
