At the time of writing, BAT was being traded at $1.04 while the asset was heading towards the oversold zone.
The selling pressure was high in the market, as indicated by the Relative Strength Index. Since the selling was greater than buying, the Chaikin Money Flow also noted that the money was flowing out of the BAT market. This made the current BAT market bearish and given the increasing volatility, traders may want to practice caution.
