scalping ETH was the most fun but at the same time challenging / hard thing few month ago, even BTC is easier than ETH imo, for few reasons,
ETH is thinner and I often find apes or groups of apes or price-insensitive participants who come into the market that will move the market more than you think, because these participant's size to upfront liquidity ratio is bigger than BTC's
ETH orderflow is ubiquitous among CEXs, no single contract dominates, for BTC, I can be on Binance's BTCUSDT perp now and grab a big picture immediately, for ETH not really, we got Huobi's + Binance's spot + futures moving big size, and often big orders on FTX, OKEx, DEXs + more
also should be nobrainer that price acts stronger when price is below uniswap's ETHUSD incentivized pools / vice versa, which I guess is obvious since they can ready arb a guaranteed OB with depth x20 that of coinbase, so uniswap to CEX futures delta was a small alpha
and ETH is great mkt to mess around in because imo there are new participants in the market that migrated from defi that is mainly a spot dominated market and thus should be on average less experienced in futures dominated markets, 5th tweet already, am i doing SBF cosplay ?
actually forgot to mention, imo to scalp ETH perfectly, you needed to watched all of Bluechip/USD charts, BTCUSD, ETHUSD, ETHBTC at same time, because of stat arbs algos
