The relative strength index is a momentum indicator used in technical price analysis to assess the magnitude and speed at which an asset’s price changes. The RSI oscillator is usually used to analyze whether a crypto asset (Bitcoin, in this case) is being overbought or oversold, suggesting a possible price or trend reversal.
When the relative strength index breaks above 70, it typically indicates an overbought market condition, with the asset’s price likely to face selling pressure. Meanwhile, an RSI value below 30 implies that the market is in an oversold condition, with price on the verge of a potential rebound.
As of this writing, BTC is valued at around $109,331, reflecting a mere 0.2% jump in the past 24 hours. According to data from CoinGecko, the premier cryptocurrency is down by more than 5% on the weekly timeframe.
