  The Read

Where the chart sits — description, not prediction

Bitcoin is trading below both its 50-day ($63.3K) and 200-day ($71.1K) averages — the longer-term trend reads as down. Over the past 30 days it has traded between $62.2K and $66.5K; today's price sits in the lower third of that range. RSI(14) is 43 — momentum remains weak.

What's the spread?

The gap between the highest buy offer and lowest sell offer. Tight spreads mean a liquid, efficient market; wide spreads mean you lose money just entering and exiting.
