ETH/BTC Triangle Tightens Near Key Resistance
The ETH/BTC pair is compressing into a clear ascending triangle, forming higher lows with resistance near 0.02650 BTC. In an analysis by CryptoBoss on X, the chart shows a strong bullish structure with rising demand. Support has climbed steadily from 0.02150 BTC, with price consolidating around 0.02423 BTC.
This price behavior indicates that Ethereum is consistently gaining strength against Bitcoin, even as each rally stalls at the same ceiling. The market has now tested that horizontal resistance three times without a breakout, keeping the pair in a tightly squeezed range. Traders are showing patience, but the pressure is building.
Momentum remains centered on the apex of the triangle. The ascending trendline continues to support Ethereum, while sellers dominate the resistance band. However, each bounce brings ETH closer to resistance with higher lows, showing sustained buying interest under tension.
