Bitcoin - Risk appettite is not picking up much
Diupdate
Two days ago, Bitcoin broke above the sloping resistance, which is bullish in the short term. However, then it quickly erased gains, and the breakout became invalidated. So far, despite the ongoing rally in the stock market, the price action in Bitcoin has remained muted. We believe that reflects a lack of risk appetite among market participants.
Indeed, at the current stock market value, we would expect BTCUSD to trade much higher from the current level; yet, it merely continues the choppy price action near the 19 300 USD price tag. That tells us something is not exactly right. Therefore, we are very cautious. As for the price targets, they remain unchanged at 17 500 USD and 15 000 USD due to the persistence of macroeconomic factors.

Technical analysis - daily time frame
Stochastic is bullish. MACD is rising but still below the 0 points; if it breaks above, it will be a bullish sign. RSI is neutral. DM+ and DM- are causing whipsaws, with the ADX hinting at the neutral trend. Overall, the daily time frame is neutral.

The volume experiences pick-up on the hourly time frame (after rebound from the sloping resistance/now support). We will pay close attention to volume level; in order to support the bullish narrative, the volume should continue rise with the price. If it starts dropping, then it will raise our suspicion.

The declining volume raises our concerns. Trade aktif
The declining volume supports our notion about the unsustainability of the rally.
