Ethereum Vs Bitcoin: Will ETH Find Reversal at Critical Support Levels?
- Ethereum has reached its lowest level relative to Bitcoin since December 2020, testing key support.
- The ETH/BTC ratio continues to decline, with the next critical support at 0.0220, signaling ongoing weakness.
- A small bullish reversal for Ethereum could spark significant market movement, potentially benefiting altcoins.
Ethereum has declined significantly in relation to Bitcoin and is now at the lowest levels last seen in December 2020. Daan Crypto Trades also pointed out that the most important technical aspect of Ethereum is that the ETH/BTC pair is now at key support. As it goes lower, it getting closer to significant price levels that many traders are waiting to bounce back.
Key Levels for Ethereums Momentum
The ETH/BTC ratio has been in a continuous decline since mid 2021 as seen on the chart and the next support level is expected to be at BTC 0.0220. This decrease clearly indicates that ETH has been following a worse trajectory than Bitcoin which might again be true if the support level crumbles. The Ether to Bitcoin ratio is faint at the moment and traders are currently observing the so-called support level.
Despite the recent performance of ETH, experts believe even a slight bullish turn could trigger quite a stir in the market. Based on the findings of the analysis, specific short-term goals such as the ones present at BTC 0.0270 have been identified in the event ETH fails to hold the support level. This bounce might also be good for altcoins ; they tend to track movements of ETH closely. Such pattern will now call for a bounce off the current levels towards 0.0270 if ETH manages to hold the levels.
Nonetheless, Ethereum has a significant barrier to cross when it comes to resistance level. The BTC 0.0270 level has focused an area of resistance and will most certainly need heaviness from the bulls to breach it. Thus, in the absence of such momentum, Ethereum will continue to struggle on the downside. Local support levels to indicate that the sell-off may be running out of steam will include a solid close above this level at BTC 0.0220.
Short-Term Recovery Potential
While Ether has lagged behind the performance of Bitcoin during the bull run, it means that Ethers price can be considered to be more reliant on the movements of Bitcoin going forward. Ethereum can therefore continue to lag behind in this declining pattern as long as Bitcoin is strong. On the other hand, if Ethereum pulls back at the current price levels and emerges above the mentioned resistance levels, it will trigger altcoins uptrend. As of press time, ETH is trading at $1,990, showing a 1.58% decline over the past day.

The outlook for Ethereums performance against Bitcoin continues to be bearish. However, it remains to be seen whether Ethereum can recover soon but the possibility of a short-term rally remains very real if ETH stays above critical support. The price needs to be watched for reversal signals since the next prominent level is a resistance level of BTC 0.0270.
