Can you give me insight, do you think trading via ETH/BTC is more profitable than ETH/USD? Please give me an advice.

Trading using the ETH/USD and ETH/BTC methods is the same, the profit you get is not based on USD/BTC, you can get profits based on ETH price movements, the profit of USD/BTC for you is the change value, when compared with the value of USD/BTC just the same.

If you ask which is more profitable trading BTC/USD with ETH/USD, there may be an answer, which definitely depends on how many percent BTC and ETH rise.

Your question can be said as a partner, not a profit, those are two different things, a partner and a different version of profit.

Trading is not really a matter of the currency pair or the coin pair which you trade but rather it is based on you the trader applying the right strategy or depends on the strategy that you are using to trade. You can have the right pair to trade, for instance, BTC/USD, and still lose money because you are not using the right trading strategy to short or long that particular future contract.

In my opinion, as a preparation for the halving and bullrun in the future, I prefer the ETH/BTC pair. Like once rowing 2 islands crossed. When we get profits in the form of BTC from trading ETH, we will also get profits from the increase in Bitcoin prices. This is a kind of doubling of profits in my opinion, if our focus is on pursuing the value of Bitcoin. However, this depends on the trader's perception and amount of capital or the investment itself. If the capital is large and what you are looking for is USDT profit, ETH/USDT is not a problem, but because I am oriented towards long-term BTC investment, I will choose ETH/BTC, I can sell BTC and save the rest if I need USDT.

From this advice, you know that whatever pair you choose, it completely depends on your goals, your needs, and your wants. But I am going to say that it completely depends on the strategy that you're holding and going to use in this market. Strategy plays a very important role here in choosing which pair suits you best. Because some people play safely with stable coins and take long-term profits. But there are other people who are willing to take risks and give it a shot at short-term trading with sudden profits. But here, both options are almost good coins to me, so you can choose according to which option can give you the most profit and based on your strategy.

Most of the time in the short run market tends to move based on sentiments. Many news, many events could cause the price to pump or dump. Bitcoin has no direct connection with any kind of alt coins but with the sentiments involved, price tend to move with Bitcoin's price movement. So if you pair ETH with Bitcoin they are both going to be volatile and good potentially move in the same direction. You are making profit in a way but you are also losing the other way.

Also, there is the complexity of counting profits or losses. It becomes difficult to know the exact amount when you are dealing with something that has no stable value. It could be time-consuming and difficult. I never prefer anything else but stable coin while doing trading. Maybe I'm lazy or I like the easy route. But one can choose whatever they are comfortable with. It's all about giving it a try and sticking with the one that you feel like is the best for you.

Ever since that I got into crypto trading, I have never tried trading alts to alts in spot trading due to the uncontrollable price movement of both.

Both of these pairs have risks but I am not comfortable trading altcoin to altcoin due to it's instability as I may find difficulties in measuring both profits and losses.

I always pair BTC and ETH with stablecoins for spot trading to minimize the risks. Very risky for me if I were in your shoes with the ETH/BTC pairing as it'll be a disappointing result once both prices are dropping and gonna be out of control.

But if you are skilled enough to trade and acknowledging the risks in alt-to-alt spot trading, then you can give it a try. Ain't giving you financial or investment advice here.

Experience will always be your best teacher.

BTC pairs can only be profitable when altcoins outperform bitcoin which happens occasionally. The only time altcoins outperform bitcoin is when the bitcoin price makes a new ATH in a bull run and starts moving sideways for a few days. This is the time when the altcoin market makes a rally and bitcoin dominance goes down which causes altcoin to outperform bitcoin. This happens once in a 4 year cycle. There can be mini alt rallies, but those are not that significant to mention.

There is no difference in which coin you get a profit. But in a bull market, your profit will be greater if you trade ETH/BTC, since the value of coins will constantly increase and thereby increase your profit. And accordingly, in a bear market, it will be more profitable to trade in a pair with a stablecoin.

For me i go with trading ETH/USD since one is a coin and the other is fiat, in which it is balance in a way if eth in general is dropping USD is stable, as for ETH/BTC is risky in the sense if eth is dropping and btc is dropping as well you will be in a very big mess.

In my opinion, advice like that is also more appropriate because it will make it easier for us to calculate every profit and loss that we experience when trading. Because most traders prefer a way that makes it easier for them to trade, choosing the ETH/USD or BTC/USD pair is better than pairing it with an unstable cryptocurrency. Apart from that, there are many cryptocurrencies from various exchanges that are paired with stable coins so that it will make it easier for traders when they want to move their assets from one exchange to another.

It's not preferable to use Bitcoin to measure Ethereum due to its instability and potential difficulty in determining profit and loss. We have to use reliable currencies like USDC, USDT, or BUSD instead, as time is crucial in trading. If you use reliable currencies like USDC, USDT, or BUSD it will make you to avoid these issues and ensure accurate trading outcomes.

You can profit on both sides, depending on which you desire. However, it is preferable to utilize usdt pair over btc pair because usdt is a stable coin and you are just dependent on the price of ETH, whereas btc pair requires you to consider not only eth but also btc. So, for me, it's a lot of hassle, very unpredictable, and has a poor profit potential compared to the USDT pair because I believe in Bitcoin's dominance. If you're familiar with successful crypto traders, you'll notice that they frequently use the USDT pair, but still up to your preference.

ETH/USD is more straightforward if you're keeping an eye on fiat value, and the liquidity is often better. ETH/BTC can be rewarding if you believe in BTC's value and want to accumulate more Bitcoin.

This is the right answer, when people start to trade this market they need to be as honest as they can with themselves, do they want to earn more fiat or more bitcoin? And depending to the answer they give to that question they can choose the best trading pairs they can to achieve this, so it is obvious that someone that is looking to increase their fiat holdings needs to trade against them as this is the easiest way to track their progress, while someone that is interested in getting more bitcoin as they are thinking on keeping those coins for the long term should instead look for trading pairs that include bitcoin.

The pairs you share,it depend on each other's investment.Some are comfortable in ETH/BTC, some are comfortable in ETH/USD.I think it depends on market conditions. Since USD is the stable currency, many investors will invest in ETH/USD to avoid volatility. Some are investing in both.These are very common topics in trading so there is no need to divide them into separate sections. Every investor invests on both coins.Everyone holds USD when the market conditions are volatile and holds BTC when the market is good.

I think that it will depend on your strategy.
But for me, I prefer to use pairing ETH/USD than /BTC. Because using BTC pairing will be quite risky for me, moreover if I am willing to have it for the long term. In addition, USD is more stable so we will know the up and down price at least. On other hand, we also need to consider the fee of trading using the pairing. Sometimes, there will be different rates or fees in some exchanges. But sometimes, it is lower or the same.

Look at Ethereum /Bitcoin (ETH/BTC) price chart and you will find an answer.

ETH/BTC history. In 2018 bull run of Ethereum, it got a highest value on market in ETH/BTC when 1 ETH was exchanged to about 0.15 BTC. Now, you see how it is lower than in 2018 considerably.

If you want to invest in Ethereum, invest in it with your fiat currency or stable coin, don't sell your bitcoin or use your bitcoin to buy Ethereum. It is true for all altcoins.

Traders have their favorite pairs they like to trade and the one they feel gives them the most profit. From the pairs you shared, I think it depends on the volatility of the market. That's when you can make profit from the ETH/BTC pair, but trading ETH/UST means you're trading a volatile asset for a stable one, which will allow you to buy more of the ETH if the price drops more than your sold price. I would rather trade a volatile crypto against a stablecoin than trade two volatile pairs.

It's all about your analysis honestly. There is no correct answer to this. The pair you'll get a better trading grip on first should be your go to trading pair. ETH/USD is generally easy to trade as you have to trade with the market while ETH/BTC hasn't been that volatile lately as BTC and ETH have too much correlation with each other these days lately. So i think ETH/ USD is naturally better.

^ That is right, it depends on your analysis and of course, it also depends on the market situation.
Most likely, people use stablecoin pair when they saw the market going down and when it will go up they will use high volatile coin pair so that they will generate profit. We cannot say which is more profitable among them because it depends on us how to decide on which pair we use. After all, we have different analyses used in trading. I think I would with a high-risk pair, ETH/BTC would be a great choice.

USD is stable whereas BTC and ETH price varies in each and every second. So now if you consider a trading pair whose both values changes a lot, then the chances of getting more profit increases here. But you need to also make sure that, along with more profits, the chance of getting more loss also increases. If I was in place of you, then I would have gone for trading with ETH/USD or BTC/USD. I don’t want to take high risks and gamble during the trades. Basically the choice will completely vary from person to person. So choose wisely OP.

It depends on the preferences of each trader. Those trading pairs are an option traders can take advantage of, but I also tend to use stable coins as my trading pairs including USDT and BUSD. ETH is also great to use as trading pair, but its price volatility is also a concern. If they are expecting to earn more ETH, then this trading pair is a good one to consider.
