- Bitcoin is now above the 50-period volume weighted moving average on the four-hour chart but faces resistance near the 100-period moving average – a more reliable gauge of the intraday downtrend.
- Bitcoin is up about 8% over the past seven days after a successful re-test around $30,000 support on Sunday.
