What Next for Bitcoin as BTC RSI Flashes Oversold Signal
On November 18, 2025, Bitcoin (BTC) traded below $90,000, about 28% down from its record high near $126,000 reached in early October 2025. The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) for BTC has fallen below 30, indicating an oversold condition. However, such RSI oversold readings can persist and do not necessarily imply an immediate reversal, as RSI should not be used as a standalone indicator.
Traders should seek price action confirmation to validate the signal, looking for support levels or candlestick patterns such as Doji or long lower wick. The last time the RSI dipped below 30 was in late February 2025, when BTC traded under $80,000 and reached a bottom near $75,000 in early April 2025.
RSI is a widely tracked momentum indicator and can become a self-fulfilling prophecy as traders act on it. This analysis was authored by Omkar Godbole, CoinDesk technical analyst and Chartered Market Technician.
