The downtrend since April has limited price recoveries and kept bitcoin in a tight range between $30,000 and $40,000 over the past month. However, momentum signals suggest selling pressure has weakened since the May correction, which could keep buyers active at support.

Bitcoin was trading around $32,000 at press time and is up about 4% over the past week.

  • The relative strength index (RSI) on the daily chart registered a series of higher lows since May 19. This indicates a bullish divergence which could stabilize the intermediate term downtrend in price.
  • Typically, a bullish divergence precedes a price bounce. It’s possible that bitcoin’s 20% price rise from the June 22 shakeout low around $29,000 completed the divergence signal.
  • Bitcoin will need to break above the 50-day moving average around $37,000 to encourage further upside beyond $40,000.
  • For now, buyers continue to take profits given strong overhead resistance on the chart.
