Sluymer has come out saying that there is “early evidence” for a potential rally with the indication from the Relative Strength Index (RSI) signals.

“We expect Bitcoin to stage another rally from current levels toward next resistance between $8,800-$9,000.”

Meanwhile, Bitcoin is trading at $8,120 after correcting from the new weekly highs around $8,275.
