Bitcoin 1-hour chart analysis
The long-term price chart has shown a decisive bearish trend for Bitcoin since December 2021. This trend was formed over a one-year range from $29,500 to $65,000. In June 2022, the price fell below the low of the range.
On the technical side, the RSI climbed above the neutral 50 line and crossed 60 before retracing. This suggests that the momentum could shift in favor of the bulls on the daily timeframe. This is also linked to market structure breaking. All in all, if the RSI manages to stay above the neutral 50 and BTC can sustain the $22,000-22.3k area, it is possible for the price to rise further, according to analyst Akashnath S.

This was not encouraging as OBV had to go higher to indicate stable demand and more to the upside. The Directional Movement Index (DMI) is showing a strong bullish trend that continues in response to the rally over the past two weeks. ADX (yellow) and +DI (green) were above the 20 mark.
