Price sits at $63858.7 inside the Bollinger band with upper resistance at $65010.03 and lower support at $63250.43. The structure remains bearish as price trades below both EMA50 at $64424.75 and EMA200 at $63949.98, while RSI(14) at 43.82 stays neutral and MACD shows a bullish golden cross at -44.3. With price testing upper Bollinger resistance while the 50-EMA acts as overhead resistance, a healthy retracement toward the 50-EMA support at $64424.75 appears probable before any continuation.
