- Bitcoin gained 6.97%, reaching $82,800.
- RSI climbed above 47.32, signaling a potential reversal.
- MACD shows reduced bearish momentum, pointing to possible continuation.
Bitcoin showed strong momentum on April 9, posting a sharp recovery from earlier losses. The daily candle closed at $82,245.70, gaining 6.77% in 24 hours. This rebound followed a recent low of $74,553.70, indicating a strong push by buyers to reclaim the $80,000 zone. Key indicators, including the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), provided signals reflecting this momentum.
MACD Reads Negative as RSI Climbs Above Oversold
The MACD line was below the signal line and had a figure of -1,672.42 and -1,358.97. However, what the histogram printed was smaller red bars showing that the bearish pressure discouraged was fading. Later on, the MACD line approached the signal line, and there was a decrease in the distance between both lines.
The histogram of the MACD was negative and had a value of -313.44, which is below the previous session, reflecting reduced downward strength. The divergence of MACD lines pointed to a turning point since the distance between them gradually decreased.
The RSI stood at 47.32, moving above its moving average of 43.81. This uptick followed a bounce from near the 30 level, a range often watched for reversals.
BTC reclaimed the $80,000 level after falling to the nearly $74,000 mark this week. Thus, $80,000 is a psychological level. This could point the next directional move if it holds above this range. The RSI and MACD show possible upside continuation. However, sustained movement will only depend on whether a buying pressure is above critical thresholds.
