- The relative strength index (RSI) on the four-hour chart continues to rise from extreme oversold levels last week, suggesting that the price is starting to stabilize after a volatile month.
- The RSI on the hourly chart, however, is declining from overbought levels. That means intraday buyers are starting to take some profits, although support at $40,000-$42,000 could stabilize a brief pullback.
