ETH weakness is also a clear indication that most altcoins are not showing strength either since they tend to reflect Ether's performance.

The 0.03 sats level is a crucial barrier to hold.

The daily chart of ETH/BTC shows a clear rejection at the 0.0325 sats level, through which a renewed test of the 0.03 sats area is occurring.

December/January are the months to get into ETH. As history shows, the best period to buy Ethereum has been in December and January.

Bitcoin dominance broke below 65-67%, after which a rally across the altcoin markets occurred.

The ETH/USD chart is showing a clear breakout above the $380-385 resistance area, with the price of Ether rallying above the $400 mark.

Whether those levels will get tested is another matter.
