☀ The Read Where the chart sits — description, not prediction Bitcoin is trading above both its 50-day ($65.2K) and 200-day ($69.0K) averages — the longer-term trend reads as up. Over the past 30 days it has traded between $62.8K and $78.4K; today's price sits in the upper third of that range. RSI(14) is 82 — territory traditionally described as overbought.
