Since most of the alt coins are traded with BTC or ETH. SO I think altcoins prie are dependent on the price of this two.
What is your opinion please share.
Most of the time yes what ever movement bitcoin may go altcoins price also follow. But in some instances there are some altcoins who move independently like what binance coin did it continue to grow overtime even bitcoin price are consolidating. The demand is still the main gear to where the price of your coins may tackle.

IMHO the price of BTC shows is the whole trend of the market as most "heavy" cryptocurrency by the capitalization

It will be a year in May this thread started, no argument in the past year should go against the influence of bitcoin solely, not even Ethereum stands the chance to rise without bitcoin. Bitcoin still hold the trust and has more wealthy maximalist than any other coin. Bitcoin pump is the most expensive to run ,most influential, most famous and most profitable for the whole space.

I think so far the one who controls the price of crypto currencies is bitcoin. All prices of crypto currencies depend on the price of bitcoin. Bitcoin as the king of crypto currencies has a very important role in leading the crypto currency market. Bitcoin as the key currency in the crypto currency market so that if this bitcoin falls and collapses then it is possible that one cryptocurrency will be extinct one by one.

Well I would say yes because most altcoins prices are dependent in the price of bitcoin and ethereum and also the amount of supply in the coin market cap

Obviously, not only altcoin. The whole crypto market are BTC and ETH. If BTC or ETH are pump/dump the whole market are pump/dump. If BTC or ETH are stable maximum altcoin are pump.

I would remove Ethereum from your analysis as it is affected by the price of Bitcoin, which means that it, like the whole market, follows the movement of the price of Bitcoin.

Prices of altcoins are often depended by changes in BTC price. Ethereum too is usually affected by Bitcoin. And so an increase in the price of Bitcoin affects the whole market.

all altcoins price is depend on BTC. Eventhough the altcoin has pair eth, eth has pair with btc.
So, it is clear that Btc is leader of all cryptocurrency.

I will say yes cos looking at it when the price of Eth or BTC falls, you will also notice a drastic change in other altcoins  and while trading most  of altcoins are Eth and BTC paired

You are not quite right, the price of altcoins really depends on BTC, but ETH has little effect on their cost. The price of ETH just like other altcoins depends on BTC. If you study the charts of Bitcoin price changes and any other coin, you will see similarities in them.

Not so much because they have primary major relative influencing factors they are dependent on(eg product release and update news).  But because of the fact that btc and eth are there base pairs, they are secondarily dependent on them

Yes, I agree with many, the price depends directly on the course BTC , ETH  when the price rises, and then the coins, when they fall and the coins fly, we will wait for the market to turn, maybe we will see new records on the coins.

I think that the whole cryptocurrency market depends on Bitcoin, as its capitalization is more than 50 percent. Only tokens created on its platform depend on Ethereum, but practice shows that not always.

All alts depend on BTC. Eth also depends on BTC since it is also an altcoin.

It is just like the stock exchange. If there are good news, most stocks go up. If there are good crypto news, btc goes up and alts follow.

Yes. Bitcoin is the king of the cryptocurrency and ethereum is the head of the altcoins i think.
So its price will affect the altcoins. If they on the high price, altcoin will be high too. But if they down, altcoins too.

First of all, Bitcoin is a kind of benchmark in the market, a change in the price of Bitcoin signals the beginning of the price movement, and the entire market moves along with it.
only if the bitcoin movement will be sharp and it is directed up, then the altcoins will fall very strongly in relation to the bitcoin

ALT coin’s value is highly correlated with the increase of BTC and vice-versa. Let’s add the USD to the ratio where ALT/BTC is also ALT/USD / BTC/USD. If people are buying more bitcoins then they are increasing the BTC/USD value. But since ALT is also rising, it means that BTC is also traded to buy ALT resulting in an increase of ALT/BTC which can also be translated to an increase of ALT/USD. The opposite is also correct, the decrease of ALT/BTC and BTC/USD together is a result of a quick sell of both BTC and ALT.

Basically, prices of altcoins depends on bitcoin including ethereum because bitcoin is the base currency of all coins. However certain cases exist where an altcoins price skyrockets irrespective of current eth or btc price

I think this view is very correct. Most of the price of the altcoin is driven by BTC and ETH. When the prices of ETH and BTC fluctuate sharply, the prices of other altcoins will change drastically.
