$ETH is currently in a weak position; it is clear that it is still being held below the EMA200 (white line), in stark contrast to SOL, which has already stood above the EMA200. Given the current situation, ETH's performance is indeed lagging behind SOL.
For ETH, the only way to reverse its weakness is if it breaks through and consistently stays above the EMA200, which may allow it to escape its current sluggish state (price pattern + EMA confirmation). Looking at the blue simulated K-line in the chart, if ETH can break through and stabilize as expected, then we may see it enter a truly strong market.
But right now, ETH is stuck in a consolidation zone (yellow box), having made several unsuccessful attempts to break through the EMA200. If it continues to be hindered at this critical position, it will not only fail to strengthen but could further decline. For the current ETH, it is evident that without breaking through the EMA200, it cannot be considered strong, let alone generating profit.
