Market Moves by Omkar Godbole OMG Rally Continues Even as Bitcoin Takes a Breather While bitcoin and the broader crypto market look to be taking a breather, OMG, the native token of scaling solution OMG Network, has reached a 3.5-year high of $18 on Coinbase.

Technician's Take by Damanick Dantes, CMT Bitcoin Declines From $48K Resistance Bitcoin (BTC) has pulled back slightly from the $48,000 resistance as short-term indicators reached overbought levels over the weekend. The next level of support is seen around $45,000, which could stabilize the pullback. Bitcoin's four-hour price chart with RSI (Source: TradingView, CoinDesk) The relative strength index (RSI) on the four-hour chart is declining from overbought levels, which means short-term buyers could exit positions around current resistance levels. The last time BTC approached the $48,000 resistance was on Sept. 18, which preceded a near 18% sell-off. Read the original story here: Bitcoin Declines From $48K Resistance; Support at $45K
