Following a low of $40,850.91 during Monday’s session, BTC/USD rose to an intraday high of $43,389 during today’s session.

Tuesday’s surge in price comes as the 14-day RSI moved past its recent ceiling of 54.40, and is now tracking at 57.7, which is another multi-week high.

Looking at the chart, today’s move sent prices close to a short-term resistance level of $43,425, which triggered a pullback, as bulls likely secured some gains.

The 10-day and 25-day moving averages have also continued to extend recent upwards momentum, which could be a good sign for bulls targeting $45,000 in upcoming days.

Price strength has also peaked, with the 14-day RSI indicator now tracking above 60, which is the highest it has been since February 9.

However, now that we are relatively overbought, and with prices trading at a historically bearish resistance level, the stage could be set for a reversal.
