Key Levels on Bitcoin and Ethereum Awaiting the Fed – Steady Lads
As usual, this market overview is presented by Cara, professional trader at the head of the Steady Lads community and today he analyzes the technical dynamics of the 50th week. The global cryptocurrency market is currently in a critical phase, just before interest rate announcements, a macroeconomic event that is traditionally able to act as a powerful catalyst.
On a technical level, the market confirmed a breakthrough its recent consolidation. Despite a check slightly deep at the end of the week, the structure remains defined by the formation of higher lows and higher highs, indicating a continuation of the uptrend. However, caution is advised as the market is headed towards the already briefly tested zone of major resistance, which forms a significant barrier just above the current level.

- The cryptocurrency market recently confirmed a breakout amid critical backlash ahead of the interest rate announcement, a major macroeconomic event.
- Despite Bitcoin’s setup being considered “messy”, Ethereum demonstrated a clearer and more compelling technical structure, turning key resistance into support.
Ethereum’s Momentum Faces Bitcoin’s Irregular Structure
L’technical analysis ofreveals a dichotomy remarkable in the purity of the price movements between two leaders market.
Bitcoin setup (BTC/USD – Daily) is under consideration. “rather messy” by Caro. The graph shows a interruption resistance followed reintegration immediate, which complicates reading immediate. However, despite this ambiguity, the general trend is maintained.
THE BTC continues to form higher lows (High lows – HL) and higher heights (Higher altitudes – HH), confirming that dynamic bullish is preserved even if it is absent conviction in its form.
In contrast, Ethereum (ETH/USD – Daily) has a much more structured structure. network AND convincing. The sequence is academically verified:
- Interruption daily resistance.
- Test again of this resistance, described as “flawless”.
- Pure reflection after this check.
Although a wick a violent low was seen on Sunday, a common and often tricky phenomenon during the weekend, resistance placed at $3,030 was formally converted into support. This technical conversion is a strong signal of Ethereum’s continued upward trajectory.

Steady Lads’ Cara focuses on Bitcoin and Ethereum
Pair analysis ETH/BTC is also particularly relevantbecause ETH is performing excellent endurance facing BTC, developing at the top of its consolidation and above the little one trend line a bullish trend started in early November.
When it comes to Altcoins versus Ether (ALT/ETH – 3D), the threat of a interruption from the bottom a bear flag persists. That justifies it Attention trader and refocusing positions on it solid.
Pair ETH/BTC is therefore ready and only one exogenous element is missing, the “macro catalyst” of the week (announcement of rates), or restart a bullish trend significant.
The summary of this technical analysis therefore calls for caution. Interest in altcoins is currently low due to non-bullish incentives and settings imprecise, making the risk asymmetrically adverse. As a result, Cara, always extremely cautious, reaffirms the strategic focus on Bitcoin and Ethereum. Given the current technical setup, including the structural purity of ETH, the likelihood of further upside should not be overlooked. This week’s rate announcement is now the key event that could determine market direction in the near term.
