The RSI currently sits around 65.25, close to overbought territory but it is not signaling exhaustion yet. If the bullish trend continues, immediate resistance lies at $2,835, followed by the psychological barrier of $3,000.
Meanwhile, MACD shows a bullish crossover above the signal line, with the histogram flipping positive. This indicates a favorable trend for bulls.
