- The relative strength index (RSI) on the four-hour chart is rising from oversold levels that appeared earlier this week. The RSI is not yet overbought, which could keep buyers active, albeit limited toward $46,000 resistance.
- On the daily chart, however, the RSI is approaching neutral levels, which suggests further consolidation is needed to recapture upside momentum.
- Resistance remains strong toward $50,000 as bitcoin registered a series of lower price highs over the past two weeks.
