During the past days, a period of aggressive selling prevailed that increased the trade volume. To overbuy the situation, RSI plummeted, and this indicates that the sellers are controlling the market momentum completely.
Although the Stochastic RSI created a bullish signal which indicated a potential recovery, however, there is an interesting bearish sign to be noticed on the (100) hundred-day EMA crossing beneath the two-hundred EMA, and that is called ‘ death cross.’ This could be a sign of bearish trend for the longer-term.
