Bitcoin Drifts Lower, Stuck Between $40K Support and $45K Resistance
BTC appears oversold into the Asian trading day, but upside remains limited.
Bitcoin (BTC) has traded in a sideways range over the past week, although buyers continued to hold support at around $40,000. The next level of resistance is between $43,000 and $45,000, which could limit short-term price gains.
BTC is roughly flat over the past 24 hours, as most technical indicators remain neutral heading into the Asian trading day.
STORY CONTINUES BELOW
The relative strength index (RSI) on the four-hour chart is the most oversold since Jan. 7, which preceded a 10% price bounce. In a downtrend, however, price reaction to oversold readings could be delayed by a few days.
For now, sellers remain in control as long-term momentum signals weaken.
