◆ Technical view · 23 September

Tuesday's session closed with Bitcoin at $86,208.56, its momentum reading at 72.3 — overbought ground, and some 13.1 per cent above the nearest support at $74,952.75, a level tested twice. Net inflows into Bitcoin exchange-traded funds on Tuesday the 22nd of September reached $364mn, with net flows across crypto ETFs more broadly at $486mn. The institutional appetite has been consistent: three successive sessions have each recorded nine-figure inflows, and the price has followed.

The overbought condition remains wide in its reach. Ether closed Tuesday's session at $2,753.63, its momentum at 69.8 — a fraction below the threshold. Dogecoin, at $0.1004, carries an RSI of 71.1, with resistance at $0.1044 a mere 4.0 per cent above that close. Zcash, at $1,630.05, holds a momentum reading of 71.8. HYPE, at $97.26, sits at 70.4.

Of the assets surveyed, only TRX and XMR remain at a measured distance from extension. The sentiment barometer, at 57 out of 100, has scarcely shifted in days — a market that continues to advance without apparent agitation.
