☀  The Read

Where the chart sits — description, not prediction

Bitcoin sits between its 50-day ($82.0K) and 200-day ($73.2K) averages — a trend in transition. Over the past 30 days it has traded between $77.3K and $86.5K; today's price sits in the lower third of that range. RSI(14) is 35 — momentum remains weak.
