Action Items
- BTC: $67K continuing lower. -25.6% vs SMA200 is deep structural damage. Don't buy.
- ETH: Weak-up trend is the only positive signal in crypto. -3.2% vs SMA20 is narrow. Not a buy but least broken.
- SOL: RSI 39.7 approaching oversold but -41.6% vs SMA200 = broken. Avoid.
- MARA: +10.6% 7D with RSI 52 is the best momentum. Weak-up trend. Mining plays lead crypto equities.
- COIN: +6.6% 7D was equity sympathy, not crypto strength. -9.1% below SMA20. Don't chase.
- MSTR: -52.9% vs SMA200. Broken chart. Avoid.
