This pattern happens when a small green candle sits inside the body of a larger red candle from the previous day. It…

This is a technical analysis post by CoinDesk analyst and Chartered Market Technician Omkar Godbole. It’s unusual to see ether ETH$3,207.31, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, showing relative strength against market leader bitcoin on a day when the market is under pressure.

This divergence has lifted the ether-to-bitcoin (ETH/BTC) ratio by more than 2%, signaling ether’s outperformance. With that in mind, here are three key charts worth keeping an…
