They suggested that Ethereum could find a market bottom shortly and then initiate a more powerful upward move than BTC.<\/p>\n<p>This assessment points to two key chart observations: the ETH\/BTC trading pair is holding local support with significant \u201cuntapped liquidity\u201d to the upside, and individual Ethereum charts are showing a more favorable liquidity setup compared to Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cCombining these two, we can conclude that if we are to bottom here soon, then it\u2019s more likely that ETH hits a new ATH before $BTC,\u201d wrote the trader.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>However, according to CrediBULL, many traders are dismissing this possibility due to an inability to analyze charts properly or because prevailing negative sentiment has clouded their judgment.<\/p>\n<p>Supporting the idea of a potential market turnaround, fellow expert Micha\u00ebl van de Poppe noted that the Crypto Fear &amp; Greed Index recently <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-fear-and-greed-index-plunges-to-9-month-low-ultimate-buy-the-dip-signal\/\">hit<\/a> its lowest point in nine months, signaling extreme fear. Based on historical data, such sentiment often comes right before a rebound.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Van de Poppe confirmed that a key CME gap for Bitcoin, around $91,500, has been filled. From a technical perspective, the analyst <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoMichNL\/status\/1990752094240780656?s=20\">highlighted<\/a> that the gap between Bitcoin\u2019s price and its 20-day moving average is quite large, which also usually precedes a bounce. As such, he anticipates a consolidation period before a continuation upward.<\/p>\n<h2>Pressures Affecting ETH and BTC<\/h2>\n<p>Looking at the markets, Bitcoin is currently trading around $93,000, down some 11% for the week. Meanwhile, ETH has faced even greater pressure, changing hands near $3,150 after a 12% drop in the last seven days.<\/p>\n<p>Different forces appear to drive this sell-off for each asset. For Ethereum, on-chain data reveals substantial selling from major holders, with a November 18 report showing that wallets holding 1,000 to 10,000 ETH <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/230000-eth-sold-by-whales-in-a-week-how-low-can-ethereum-go\/\">sold<\/a> approximately 230,000 coins over the past week, coinciding with the price fall from around $3,600 to just over $3,200.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, a lack of new investors may be slowing momentum. An analysis from CryptoQuant <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoquant.com\/insights\/quicktake\/691b5e7e73ffab7004652617-Ethereum-is-waiting-for-new-investors-for-its-rise\">indicates<\/a> that new depositor activity on the Ethereum network has remained flat, even during its recent test of the $4,000-$5,000 range. This suggests the rally was fragile, likely driven by internal liquidity rather than new external demand.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, for BTC, the price difference between Coinbase Pro and Binance, known as the Coinbase Premium Gap, has <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/heres-what-bitcoins-90-coinbase-premium-really-tells-us-about-the-market\/\">fallen<\/a> to -$90, near its lowest level this year. This indicates that retail traders on Binance are currently dominating the market, while institutional investors on Coinbase are inactive or selling. Such a shift often leads to increased volatility and selling pressure until larger buyers return.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/analyst-sees-ethereum-outperforming-bitcoin-to-new-ath-first\/\">Analyst Sees Ethereum Outperforming Bitcoin to New ATH First<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A crypto commentator is making the case that Ethereum (ETH) is positioned to outperform Bitcoin (BTC) and reclaim its all-time high (ATH) before the market leader does.
