Trading expert Peter Brandt recently I left a comment. The Ethereum vs Bitcoin chart provides interesting insights into market developments.

Brandt’s comments come after previous criticism of Ethereum, disparaging it as a “junk coin” and its supporters as “Etheridiots.” However, with Ethereum recently falling to its lowest ranking against Bitcoin in nearly three years, Brandt’s stance appears to have changed.

Ethereum Plunges Against Bitcoin: Bear Trap?

Analyzing the Ethereum-BTC chart, Brandt suggested the existence of a “bear trap,” indicating that a continued decline in the value of Ethereum relative to Bitcoin could encourage sellers to take additional short positions.

However, this can lead to unexpected reversals and turn an apparent support breakdown into a false signal.

Brandt’s observations about potential bear traps highlight the complexity of cryptocurrency markets and the importance of considering multiple factors when analyzing price movements.

While Ethereum is experiencing relative weakness compared to Bitcoin, Brandt’s cautious optimism suggests there could be a chance for a turnaround soon.

Bullish signal amid ETH/BTC downtrend

Despite Ethereum’s recent challenges, bullish signals have emerged that hint at a potential turnaround. In particular, the options market showed optimism, with a significant portion of open interest in Ethereum options expiring by the end of April being a bullish bet on price.

About $3.3 billion worth of notional Ether options are set to expire, with about two-thirds of this amount allocated to call options, according to Deribit data. Moreover, the April expiration Ethereum put call ratio is 0.45, indicating a slightly more bullish stance than Bitcoin options.

In particular, if the put-call option ratio is lower than 1, it suggests an optimistic mood, with traders preferring call options over put options. Moreover, the emergence of two new Ethereum whales, identified as 0x666 and 0x435, further highlights Ethereum’s bullish mood, according to cryptocurrency tracking platform Spot On Chain.

These entities have collectively withdrawn significant amounts of ETH from large exchanges, suggesting growing confidence in Ethereum’s prospects despite its recent downward trend.

Ethereum is facing downward pressure on Bitcoin, but Bitcoin’s resilience in the market is clear. Crypto analyst Ali highlighted that if Bitcoin can maintain above $70,800, a potential upside target appears to be $85,000.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin currently trades above this critical level with a market price of $71,621, which suggests it could soon rise to $85,000.
