The story about the ETH ETF approval marked the previous week, and left BTC aside from investors' view during the second half of the week. However, both volatility and liquidations were significant. First, BTC was strongly shifted toward the level of $71.410 from $66.225, and then the price started its decline toward the level of $66.8K. As per news, there has been $350 million in liquidations of leveraged positions, which was the highest level since the beginning of May. It seems that the market was slowly losing hope that ETH ETF will be approved by the SEC, in which sense, the information regarding its approval was sort of a surprise, which imposed strong market moves.
Regardless of the latest developments, RSI is showing that the BTC market is still not in the overbought territory. The indicator reached the highest level at 66, and then slowly went down till the level of 57. Based on current indicator`s moves, it seems that the market is still not in the mood to look at the oversold market side. Moving average of 50 days slowed down its convergence toward MA200, so they are currently moving as two parallel lines. There is no indication over potential cross in the coming period, and in this sense, no trend change for the moment.
Based on current charts, it seems that the market does not have the strength to clearly pass the $70K line. Still, it should be considered that the previous week was a specific one, as the news about ETH ETF approval was dominant. If we take into account liquidations which occurred and that some of funds from BTC were transferred to ETH, in expectation of its surge in price, then market lack of strength could be explained. As for the future period, charts are still somewhere mixed. There is a potential for the upside, in terms that levels above $70K might be tested for one more time, but there is also some probability for
65K
support to be tested. Market would certainly need time to digest the latest regulatory moves, in which sense, higher volatility might continue for another week.
