Bitcoin (BTC) moved back below the $31,000 level on Saturday, as cryptocurrency markets consolidated to start the weekend.
Following a high of $31,005.61 on Friday, BTC/USD dropped to a low of $30,044.50 earlier in today’s session.
Yesterday’s peak saw bitcoin climb to its highest level since June 7, which has seemingly prompted bulls to secure gains. BTC/USD – Daily Chart
Looking at the chart, the decline in price comes as the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) collided with a ceiling at 71.00.
At the time of writing, the index is now tracking at 70.18, which is marginally higher than a floor at 68.00.
In the event the RSI drops below 70.00 there is a good chance that even more bulls could vacate earlier positions, in order to protect recent profits. Ethereum

This is marginally lower than yesterday’s peak of $2,120.59, which saw ETH trade at its strongest point since last May. ETH/USD – Daily Chart
