Between May 20 an 25, both Ethereum (ETH) and Google’s parent company Alphabet, Inc. (GOOGL) suffered weekly losses. In this article, we examine the price fluctuations of both during this period. We then compare the two assets to determine which is this week’s biggest loser.
Much of the information presented on GOOGL is the same as that presented in our earlier Bitcoin (BTC) vs. GOOGL analysis. Furthermore, much of the information about Ethereum’s current trading pattern is discussed in our May 25 ETH vs. gold and ETH vs. silver analyses. Thus, to broaden our original analysis, we focus more heavily on the similarities and differences between ETH and GOOGL here. BTC is mentioned as relevant.

Alphabet, Inc.

Since May 20, Alphabet Inc (GOOGL) has been trading within a descending wedge. However, it initiated a downward trend four days prior after a high of $1193.98 was reached. Since that time, the price has been trading beneath a descending resistance line. It has been validated several times on May 16, 17, 23, and 24. The descending support line which completes the wedge formed on May 20 when low of $1139.16 was reached.
Googl
Lower lows were reached on May 23 when GOOGL dropped to validated the support line. At the time of writing, the price of GOOGL appeared to be falling from the resistance line which was last validated on May 24. If the price continues dropping to reach the support line, lower lows than those experienced on May 23 will be observed.

Ethereum In a Channel

While GOOGL’s trading current trading pattern fully emerged on May 20, Ethereum has been trading within a horizontal channel since May 17. On that day, an hourly high of $261.77 on May 17 generated a horizontal resistance line a support line was generated by an hourly low of $227.20.

Ethereum Horizontal Channel

After ETH first fell from the resistance line on May 17, it traded near the support line for several day. It was not until May 19 that price pushed upward to reach the resistance line. After it was reached on May 20, the price dropped ot the middle of the channel.

It rebounded and reached the resistance line again on May 21. This generated a double top pattern which preceded a drop back to the support line on May 23.

The price has subsequently risen. However, at the time of writing on May 26, ETH had yet to reach the resistance line. On the contrary, slight hourly drops had been observed.

Ethereum vs. Google

The price of Ethereum (candlesticks) and the price of GOOGL (orange line) are compared at one-hour intervals from May 20 to May 25 in the graph below. Percentile changes are shown on the right. Ethereum Comparison Between May 20 and 25, ETH experienced much greater volatility than GOOGLE. This is to be expected. Cryptocurrencies tend to be a more volatile asset class than traditional stocks. Overall, ETH experienced loss of 3.67% during the last week. It worth noting that Bitcoin also saw losses, but they were much less significant (around 0.6%). GOOGL also suffered losses, but they were less significant. Overall, GOOGL saw losses of 2.53% between May 20 and 25. These losses, were, however greater than Bitcoin’s. In short, for the week of May 20-25, both Ethereum and GOOGL dropped in price.
