The analyst has issued a warning that with Ethereum currently trading weaker than Bitcoin, there is potential for further downside if Bitcoin declines.<\/p>\n<p>Normally, Ethereum trades at about 1.3 times the volatility of Bitcoin, so a 10% pullback in the latter would result in an ETH decline of around 13%, as VirtualBacon points out. At the moment, Bitcoin is near $82,000, but Ethereum has dropped to $2,400 and is showing more weakness than usual.<\/p>\n<p>A 4% move by Bitcoin from $82,000 down to $78,000 would likely see Ethereum drop by 5% or more, with the analyst identifying support around $2,250. Still, anything below $2,400 is considered undervalued by VirtualBacon; the $2,400-$2,200 range is seen as a prime buying area, assuming Bitcoin holds its bull market support between $76,000 and $78,000. Under current conditions, the channel notes that Ethereum is already at the lower end of that range.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"forecast-disclaimer\"><em>This article reflects the channel authors\u2019 opinions and is not investment advice.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"bcd-cta\">Want to test your own call?
