$BTC

$BTC When trading a coin paired with BTC (like ETH/BTC or SOL/BTC), you're not trading against USD—you're trading against Bitcoin’s value. This means the altcoin must outperform BTC to gain. Even if your altcoin goes up in USD terms, if BTC rises faster, your alt/BTC trade could still lose value.

Always watch both charts: the coin vs BTC and BTC vs USD. This helps you spot real strength or weakness.
