Trading based on BTC or ETH?

I prefer ETH due to stability but there are many coins that have paired with BTC only where I choose BTC. Otherwise I stick with ETH pair.

So far I have tried with both, BTC and ETH, and I am (mistakenly?) feeling more comfortable exchanging on the basis of ETH since the price is less raising and more stable.

However, I would like to know from experienced traders on which basis you are trading, and whether I am doing big mistakes in trading on the basis of ETH?

Actually i also prefer etherium than bitcoin because i have small amount of capital. Etherium is more afford rather than bitcoin.
So if you trade etherium i think it si not mistake at all. You did right choice.

Ethereum shows more stability and less volatility than Bitcoin. However, now trading with BTC can bring you the bigger profit if you catch the right time when to buy and when to sell it.

The idea is nice. taking into account BTC has all chances to jump up again and ETH is growing and soon will again reach 500 dollars and even more, do it!

At least, I will not suggest going after this shitty coin eth because it has no potential of making you rich or providing you with any decent profit. I have had very bad experience with this coin rather all altcoins are pretty much useless. They are quite habitual of putting their investors into losses. This eth is ageing dependent on bitcoin for increase and decrease in value but its dumps are really very prolonged ones.
