Bitcoin in pullback mode, support near $45k
Bitcoin (BTC) buyers continued to take profits during Asia hours as short-term overbought signals appeared on the charts. The cryptocurrency is trading around initial support at $47,500 at press time and is down about 3% over the past 24 hours. A lower support zone between $42,000-$45,000 could stabilize the pullback.

Bitcoin’s 30% rally over the past month appears to be exhausted, although support above the $42,000 breakout should hold.
