Bitcoin Steadies Above $117,800 as Altcoins Deliver Mixed Results
Data from official exchange charts and verified market trackers show that Bitcoin maintained its position above $117,800 in the last 24 hours.
The market saw a sharp increase in trading volume, with Bitcoin’s 24-hour volume approaching $978 million and its market capitalization holding at $2.35 trillion.
This stability followed a period of intense volatility, with Bitcoin reaching a new all-time high just below $119,000.
The four-hour and daily charts confirm that Bitcoin remains in a strong uptrend. The price trades well above the 20, 50, and 200-period moving averages.
The daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) sits above 73, indicating overbought conditions but not yet showing clear reversal signals.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) on both timeframes stays in positive territory, with the histogram flattening on the four-hour chart.
This suggests bullish momentum persists but may be slowing, pointing to a possible short-term consolidation.
