What Does the RSI Indicate for Bitcoin?
Kevin Svenson, an analyst known for his accurate Bitcoin predictions, shared insights via YouTube about the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator on Bitcoin's daily chart. He emphasized that this momentum indicator, which determines whether an asset is overbought or oversold, has shown a pattern historically followed by a substantial rise in BTC prices.
Svenson mentioned that breaking out of a daily RSI downtrend typically leads to the RSI hitting new support levels, which often precedes a significant upward movement. Currently, Bitcoin is in the retest area of this downtrend, suggesting that another substantial rise may be imminent.
When Might Bitcoin Reach Its Peak?
Discussing Bitcoin's potential peak price, Svenson pointed out that historically, Bitcoin reaches its new peak between 40 to 80 weeks after the halving event. With Bitcoin currently 13 or 14 weeks post- halving, he estimated that another 25 weeks or more are needed to potentially achieve the next peak, indicating that this could happen around January.
