☀ The Read Where the chart sits — description, not prediction Bitcoin is trading above both its 50-day ($81.4K) and 200-day ($72.5K) averages — the longer-term trend reads as up. Over the past 30 days it has traded between $81.2K and $86.6K; today's price sits in the lower third of that range. RSI(14) is 33 — momentum remains weak.
