On the 3rd of January, the 4-hour RSI plummeted to 19.76. Previously, the reading dropped below 25 in December and to 16 in early August after BTC fell from just below $60k to $49k.

Bitcoin’s reaction in the past 24 hours was encouraging. The range formation of the past two months between $92k and $106.2k was respected. At press time, the mid-range level at $99.1k acted as support.
