- BTC’s April 13 breakout above $60,000 and subsequent all-time high failed. Slowing upside momentum on daily and weekly chart indicates continued profit taking on rallies.
- The last 15% price drop occurred on March 21, which fully recovered and then consolidated for several weeks.
- The relative strength index (RSI) is now oversold on the four-hour chart, which typically leads to price recoveries similar to April 8 and March 25.
- On the daily chart, BTC is holding support just above its 200-day moving average. If selling pressure returns, the next level of support is around $50,000 and then $42,000.
