The 4-hour Relative Strength Index (RSI) is rising from extremely oversold levels, suggesting buyers can stay positive in the short term. However, it remains within a month-long downtrend as defined by the downward sloping 100-period moving average on the 4-hour chart. A downtrend tends to limit the price increase when there are more sellers than buyers.
Price momentum remains negative on the weekly chart, which means that Bitcoin will need more time to finally break over its short-term downtrend.
