The formation of a bullish trading pattern suggests that the ETH/BTC try might be on the verge of a trend reversal.
Ethereum’s native token, Ether looks poised to log a major value rally versus its prime rival, Bitcoin in the days leading toward early 2023.
Ether has a 61% chance of breaking out versus Bitcoin
The bullish cues emerge primarily from a classic technical setup dubbed a “cup-and-handle” pattern. It forms once the worth undergoes a u-shaped recovery (cup) followed by a small downward shift (handle) — all whereas maintaining a standard resistance level (neckline).
Traditional analysts understand the cup and handle as a optimistic setup, with veteran Tom Bulkowski noting that the pattern meets its profit target 61% of all time. in theory, a cup-and-handle pattern’s profit target is measured by adding the space between its neck and lowest purpose to the neck level.
The Ether-to-Bitcoin ratio (or ETH/BTC), a widely tracked pairing, has halfway painted an analogous setup. The try currently awaits a flight on top of its neck resistance level of around 0.079 BTC, as illustrated in the chart below.
As a result, a decisive breakout move on top of the cup-and-handle neck of 0.079 BTC may push Ether’s value toward 0.123 BTC, or over 50%, by early 2023.
