How Has the Active Signal Performed?
The active signal is LONG as of April 22, citing "Uptrend breaking above resistance." Entry: $78,603. As of the latest April 26 update, BTC sits at $79,216, up 0.8% from the entry price. No exit has triggered. Fear & Greed is now 47, which moves the market out of fear and back to neutral. RSI is at 61.4, showing firmer momentum without an overbought reading.
Where Is BTC Trading Right Now?
BTC is at $79,216, up 6.4% over the past seven days and 19.9% over the past 30 days. That is no longer just a slow grind. Price has recovered from the mid-to-upper $60,000s and is now testing whether the late-April move can hold above the high-$70,000 range.
RSI at 61.4 still sits in neutral territory, but it is a stronger neutral reading than last week's low-50s setup. It is not overbought, and it is not oversold. If you're newer to reading RSI in these conditions, How to Trade Bitcoin in a Sideways Market covers what neutral momentum typically means for entry timing.
BTC dominance sits at 58.2%. Capital is staying in BTC rather than rotating aggressively into altcoins. That's typical in cautious conditions: when traders are uncertain, they concentrate in the largest, most liquid asset. This week, CoinDesk reported that Bitcoin whales are building long positions while derivatives funding rates stay deeply negative. That divergence is worth watching because large-player accumulation can support the recovery if spot demand keeps improving.
What Does F&G at 47 Mean for the Outlook?
Fear & Greed at 47 is back in neutral territory. The index sat below 15 through much of March and early April before recovering into the high-40s. That climb from single digits to 47 shows a market that has stopped panicking and is starting to believe the recovery, even if it is not euphoric.
The high-40s neutral range sits between two more meaningful signals: the capitulation readings below 15 that tend to mark cycle lows, and the greed above 65 that can precede overheated moves. At 47, neither applies. Traders who bought into the extreme fear in March at prices below $70,000 are sitting on significant gains at $79,216.
Two things would confirm this LONG is working. Fear & Greed holding near neutral or climbing higher would show genuine buyer interest returning. RSI pushing from 61.4 toward 65+ would tell you bulls are taking control, not just consolidating. Right now, the signal is open and finally back above entry.
