What Changed in Crypto Markets While You Were Sleeping — May 6

BeInCrypto presents our daily morning roundup of crypto news and market changes that you might have missed while you were asleep.

Bitcoin update

BTC bounced considerably on May 5 after reaching the $53,000 support area. It created a bullish engulfing candlestick, negating the bearish implications from the previous day’s decrease. This is a sign that the trend is still bullish and the price is likely to continue heading upwards.

Technical indicators are also bullish. This is especially evident by the growing bullish cross in the Stochastic oscillator (green arrow).

In addition, the MACD is moving upwards and is positive, and the RSI has just crossed above 50.

Therefore, the daily time-frame indicates that the current BTC trend is bullish.
