Bitcoin (BTC) is in a consolidation phase, which is defined by a tight price range with low trading volume. So far, the cryptocurrency has struggled to make a decisive move above $30,000, which is near the top of its recent range.

BTC is up by 3% over the past 24 hours, and momentum has improved over the past week. That means buyers could remain active above the $27,500 support level.

The sharp down move on May 12 toward $25,300 occurred on high volume, which could be a sign of capitulation, albeit less significant than in the previous sell-off.

Still, despite room for a price bounce, upside appears to be limited because of negative momentum readings on the weekly and monthly charts.
