The cryptocurrency market hosted an impressive bull rally on Monday. Bitcoin (BTC) surged past $72,000 during the afternoon and climbed up to $72,800. During this period, the price of Ethereum returned above $4,000 after a long time.
Current State of Cryptocurrencies
Especially, the crypto market value has experienced an incredible rise since the beginning of the year, increasing over $1 trillion to reach $2.69 trillion from $1.59 trillion at the time of writing. Bitcoin‘s market cap alone has seen a 70% increase since January 1, 2024, and investors might consider realizing some of their profits.
A Relative Strength Index (RSI) heatmap provided by CoinGlass was examined to give an idea on this matter. The daily average RSI value in this indicator is found to be above 68, and the weekly RSI value is at 65.
Bitcoin (BTC) RSI Outlook
Firstly, when Bitcoin is examined across five different time frames, it appears to be overbought according to the RSI, reflecting higher values for longer time intervals. The values that emerged in the weekly, daily, 4-hour, and hourly Relative Strength Indexes were 88.4, 79.5, 75.14, and 73.32, respectively.
BTC has reached an all-time high (ATH) level after a 5% increase over the last seven days, rising to $72,800. The price movements and record highs could be interpreted as a favorable sell signal for the leading cryptocurrency. BTC is currently trading above $71,600 at the time of writing.
On the other hand, according to data provided by IntoTheBlock, 100% of Bitcoin holders are currently waiting profitably, suggesting that profit-driven sales could occur in the short term.
Fetch.ai (FET) RSI Outlook
Looking at the heatmap provided by Coinglass, Fetch.ai (FET) stands out as the second most overbought asset according to different time frame analyses.
FET has experienced a 2.25% drop over the week and is trading at $2.55. The weekly RSI value was indicating overbuying at 89.32. Additionally, the daily RSI value of the token was calculated at 79.26, signaling a correction could happen at any moment.
Despite all these indicators, having an overbought RSI in cryptocurrencies does not conclusively explain a price drop or a reversal of the trend. It’s important to remember that volatility in the crypto market is extremely high.
