Technical analysis
Overall, it is a really interesting chart with prices respecting key levels.
The price was rejected on the underside of the uptrend line, and the horizontal resistance was at $3,967.
Price has since pulled back to the low $ 3,00,0, and it has been mostly range-bound between the horizontal support of $3,280 and the horizontal resistance of $3,480.
A break out of $3,500 likely sends the price swiftly back to $3,700.
The RSI is in the middle territory at 47, but it is breaking above its moving average. This could see price follow through a push up to $3,700 in the immediate term.
Next Support: $3,280
Next Resistance: $3,480
Direction: Neutral (Bullish)
Upside Target: $3,700
Downside Target: $3,280
