The smart money tool (SMT) divergence is used by traders to determine if the trend is getting stronger or weaker, which may lead to a shift in the market sentiment. If we compare Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), we can notice that one is stronger and the other one is weaker.
However, this correlation is not visible to the naked eye because they seem to move in tandem.
Bitcoin – Ethereum SMT Divergence Based on the coinmetrics data, the BTC-ETH correlation stands at 0.89, which is nearing all-time high values by historical standards. This means that there is a strong positive relationship between the two cryptocurrencies.
The SMT divergence concept can help a trader find short-term price discrepancies. If BTC and ETH have a strong correlation, the price should mimic the same price action. For example, if Ethereum makes a higher high, Bitcoin should do the same.
However, sometimes there is a break in that correlation, and that's exactly what happened recently. ETH's price made a higher high, but Bitcoin made a lower high. In practical terms, it means ETH is stronger than Bitcoin, so we can expect Bitcoin to sell more relative to ETH during the current pullback.
