Bitcoin (BTC) is trading lower after a brief 5% bounce on Sunday. The cryptocurrency stalled at around $35,000 resistance and could find support at $30,000, which is the bottom of a monthlong trading range.
The relative strength index (RSI) on the four-hour chart is declining near overbought territory. That is similar to last week, which preceded a nearly 15% price drop.
Buyers were able to defend $30,000 support last week, registering a higher low from the June 22 shakeout. This means sideways trading could persist until a decisive breakout above $40,000 or breakdown below $30,000 occurs.
Bitcoin is still in relief mode following the May sell-off and is up about 7% over the past week, although upside appears to be limited below $40,000 given the intermediate-term downtrend.
The launch of round-the-clock bitcoin futures trading eliminates the long-standing CME weekend gap and marks another step toward fully integrated institutional crypto markets.
Lo que debes saber:
From Friday, CME Bitcoin futures and options now trade 24/7 on Globex, ending the traditional Friday-to-Sunday market closure that created the widely watched “CME gap.”
Despite the structural shift, liquidity remains concentrated in ETF options and offshore perpetuals, with IBIT options open interest far exceeding CME crypto options markets.
