Despite Ethereum (ETH) recently showing strength, a well-known crypto analyst is leaning bearish on the digital asset. In a new strategy session, Credible Crypto, a pseudonymous crypto trader with 441,400 followers on the social media platform X, warns that Ethereum is approaching a trouble area when compared to Bitcoin (BTC).
Based on the analyst’s chart, it appears that Ethereum’s pair with Bitcoin (ETH/BTC) could potentially fall by up to 20% from its current level.
At the time of writing, Ethereum is trading at 0.0369300 BTC ($3,568).
On the Ethereum/US dollar pair, the analyst suggests that if Ethereum fails to surpass the resistance level around $4,000, the second-largest digital asset by market cap could experience a pullback of approximately 24% from its current level. This would bring prices back to levels last seen in early November.
“A rejection here and a lower high would lead us to weekly demand, which, coupled with a roughly 10% correction on Bitcoin, would create a major buy zone at $2,700-$2,800.”
As for Bitcoin, the analyst believes that the crypto king is poised for a significant price correction before it can continue to rise.
“Obviously, I still believe that we will ultimately reach $100,000+, but the timeline is now changing, and the move below $94,000 has opened the possibility of a larger downside move first (as I have stated many times).”
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $96,809, up approximately 7% from its one-week low of around $90,700.
