☀  The Read

Where the chart sits — description, not prediction

Bitcoin is trading above both its 50-day ($80.7K) and 200-day ($71.8K) averages — the longer-term trend reads as up. Over the past 30 days it has traded between $75.6K and $86.6K; today's price sits in the middle third of that range. RSI(14) is 43 — momentum remains weak.
