Bitcoin’s technical picture
While the long-term Bitcoin’s trend remains bullish, on the intraday interval the coin is vulnerable to technical correction as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) points downwards, ready to exit an overbought territory. The first barrier comes at $6,000, however, the correction may be extended towards $5,800 supported by the middle line of 4-hour Bollinger Band.
On the upside, a sustainable move above $6,100 will open up the way towards $6,335. This barrier is created by SMA100 weekly.
