Top Three Altcoins To Watch Closely Before Bullish ‘Q4’ Kicks In
Altcoin season nears as Bitcoin, Tether dominance weaken—Ethereum, Solana, and Immutable X show bullish setups ahead of Q4 2025 recovery.
Crypto traders eye altcoins as Bitcoin dominance drops, signaling potential gains for Ethereum, Solana, and IMX in the final quarter of 2025.
With the final quarter of 2025 approaching, traders are preparing for a possible shift toward altcoins. Charts for Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D), Tether dominance (USDT.D), and the Altseason Index hint that market conditions may soon favor altcoins. According to an analyst, Ethereum (ETH), Immutable X (IMX), and Solana (SOL) are among the tokens showing setups worth tracking.
Bitcoin Dominance and Altseason Index
Bitcoin dominance recently tested resistance near 59.3 percent. A move lower toward 57 percent would signal room for altcoins to gain. The Altseason Index sits at 73, just below the mark that defines an altcoin season. The reading shows that while Bitcoin remains strong, the market is edging closer to a phase that benefits altcoins.
Tether Dominance Weakens
Tether dominance rejected at the 200-day moving average and key Fibonacci resistance. The chart has since turned lower, suggesting stablecoin supply could flow back into Bitcoin and altcoins. A sustained drop in USDT.D would strengthen the case for a broader market recovery in October.
Ethereum’s Support Levels
Ethereum has shown a reversal on the daily chart. A dip into the $3,600–$3,400 area would match long-term Fibonacci support and set up bullish divergence. Resistance sits between $4,185 and $4,250, while the $4,400 zone remains a high-risk area.
Solana Near Key Zones
Solana bounced from $190 but may retest lower levels if weakness continues. The $176–$166 range combines the 200-day moving average and major retracement levels. A reaction here would likely confirm support and open the door for a rebound.
Immutable X as an Early Signal
Immutable X has often moved ahead of the wider market. Price action on IMX could provide early signs of whether altcoins are ready to gain strength.
Q4 Predictions
The coming weeks may bring more downside before a recovery. If both Bitcoin and Tether dominance confirm bearish patterns, conditions would favor altcoins. Ethereum, Solana, and Immutable X stand out as important projects to monitor as October trading begins.
