  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 40 — momentum remains weak.

Crypto 101

What is liquidity?

How easily an asset trades without moving its price. Bitcoin is deeply liquid; tiny tokens may crater 20% from a single large sell. Illiquidity is a hidden risk.

“"Fear & Greed" is a thermometer, not a crystal ball.”
