Trade Ethereum to US Dollar - ETH/USD CFD

Ethereum / USD

Browse our live ETH/USD chart to get all the information you need on the Ethereum price today

The ETH/USD pair matches one of the world’s most popular and widely accepted cryptocurrencies, Ether, with the globe’s strongest fiat currency, the US dollar. This popular crypto-to-fiat pairing represents how many dollars – the quote currency – are needed to buy one Ether  – the base currency.

Ethereum is a famous blockchain platform that is used for developing decentralised applications. Designed by Vitalik Buterin in 2013, it is the pioneering network for blockchain-based smart contracts.

Often referred to as the “crypto-fuel” used to power Ethereum, Ether (ETH) is the platform’s native currency. It is by far one of the most prominent coins in the crypto industry and has the second-largest market cap after BTC. Even after a few years in existence, ETH remains rather volatile, offering great potential for speculation. Besides, its price is more attractive when compared to that of BTC, as ETH is several times cheaper than its peer.

With Capital.com’s ETH chart you can not only quickly view Ethereum current price in USD, but also trace its value in historic terms.

On the other end of the ETH vs USD pair is the US dollar, one of the most economically and financially important fiat currencies worldwide. Usually considered a benchmark, it makes up more than 60 per cent of all known central bank foreign reserves. The dollar also dominates the global foreign exchange market: with a daily average volume of more than $5trn, the currency is involved in almost 90 per cent of all forex transactions.

The ultra-volatile nature of the Ether/USD pairing makes it one of the most popular crypto-to-fiat currency pairs in the market. As the volume of Ethereum to USD transactions is steadily growing, the pair has become a strong alternative to traditional forex markets, offering substantial opportunities to traders.

Those looking to speculate on ETH/USD, need to keep an eye on a number of factors that can influence the pair’s rates.

The dollar, while well-established, is directly affected by the US economic and political situation, news and events. An unstable political climate in the country, for example, could lead to a decline in the value of the currency. Besides, it is crucial to follow the latest updates from the US Federal Reserve (the Fed), especially regarding interest rates and monetary policy, as it also plays an important role in determining the direction of the USD movements.

As the cryptocurrency is not tied to any particular country, economic and geopolitical factors have little to no influence on the Ethereum value. Instead, traders should stay on top of the latest developments and trends in its adoption rates, demand, regulations and market sentiment.

Traders can try to benefit from Ethereum/dollar price swings by taking long or short positions on this crypto-to-fiat pair using Capital.com’s proprietary trading platform which features a real-time ETH to USD price chart and charges a zero per cent commission on trades.

Capital.com is one of the best stock trading platforms I’ve used. The UX and UI on both the mobile app and web platform are outstanding, making it incredibly easy to navigate. They’ve built a vibrant community of traders and investors, and their UAE team really stands out for delivering an exceptional trading experience.

Great app! I requested some features to be added, such as analysis tools, and they delivered. Amazing job! The agents are always helpful and reply quickly. It’s not 5 stars because, at times, some less experienced agents may say it’s impossible to fulfill the request or fix the problem while another agent, like Angel, quickly escalated the issue to the necessary team/person/department and resolved it

This is an excellent platform. The stop loss and take profit work very well; however, when the changes are very fast like at the beginning of the session, the stop loss does not work. If this defect is corrected it will be the perfect platform.

Efficiency. When creating the account, it was smooth, efficient from start to finish. Verification of documents also was done the same day, unlike other platforms where you have to wait a day or two.
