Bitcoin price<\/a> is currently trading at $28,000 only a week after retesting below $20,000 \u2013 potentially leaving that price range behind forever.<\/p>\n

The powerful, more than 30% one-week rally has brought the top cryptocurrency to a bullish technical level that in the past only was reached after a bear market bottom was put in.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Shows Sudden Strength Amid Banking Sector Crisis<\/h2>\n

After gradually building a potential base following the FTX collapse, Bitcoin is suddenly showing serious strength compared to the rest of the financial world. It is even outperforming altcoins, in the face of a brand new narrative: BTC versus banks<\/a>.\u00a0The banking sector is in crisis, but this is what Bitcoin was built for.<\/p>\n

Since the situation started, the top cryptocurrency by market cap is up more than 30% \u2013 and it only took a week to get there. The sudden strength has caused BTCUSD to pass a crucial level of on the Relative Strength Index<\/a>. Breaking back above the level in the past always put in the bottom in hindsight.<\/p>\n

BTCUSD 2W RSI Gives Signal That Ends The Bear Market<\/h2>\n

According to the chart pictured below, BTCUSD 2-week RSI has reached a reading above 54, passing above the mid-point of the technical indicator. The Relative Strength Index<\/a> is a momentum oscillator used to tell traders if an asset is overbought or oversold. Readings above 70 indicate overbought conditions, while readings below 30 suggest the market is oversold.<\/p>\n

More importantly to this chart, price action passing above the middle-point of the RSI at a reading of 50 suggests that momentum is increasing. In Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, once trending, the RSI can stay elevated for extended periods, or repeatedly push into overbought conditions without a major, trend-altering correction. That signal is now back, and in the next section we’ll more closely examine what that means.<\/p>\n

The first signal in 2012 resulted in 18,000% ROI after the RSI passed above 50. The second in the series in 2015 added another 6,000% to the signal’s success rate. The third in 2019 did 600% after the signal appeared. What will it do in 2023?<\/p>\n
