With the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 56.32, the market is neutral but trending positive because it hasn’t crossed the overbought level. The current bullish bias is strengthened by the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), which shows a positive crossover, a sign of possible upward advance.
RSI is a technical indicator that is most commonly used in trading to assess the momentum and overbought or oversold conditions of an asset. The RSI oscillates between a level of 0 and 100 and is typically used on a 14-day timeframe. An RSI value above 70 suggests that the asset may be overbought, suggesting a potential reversal or pullback. Conversely, an RSI value below 30 indicates that the asset is oversold, suggesting a potential buying opportunity.
The way the market is now behaving for Bitcoin is cautiously bullish. If the rising channel pattern continues, the BTC price may test greater resistance. Investors and traders alike should keep a close eye on these critical technical levels for clues about whether the strains of December will cause the November ceiling to give in.
