BeInCrypto presents our daily morning roundup of crypto news and market changes that you might have missed while you were asleep.

Bitcoin update

BTC bounced considerably on May 5 after reaching the $53,000 support area. It created a bullish engulfing candlestick, negating the bearish implications from the previous day’s decrease. This is a sign that the trend is still bullish and the price is likely to continue heading upwards.

Technical indicators are also bullish. This is especially evident by the growing bullish cross in the Stochastic oscillator (green arrow).

In addition, the MACD is moving upwards and is positive, and the RSI has just crossed above 50.

Therefore, the daily time-frame indicates that the current BTC trend is bullish.

Telcoin (TEL) is the biggest altcoin mover in both the past 24 hours and the past week. TEL is trading up 94% today, moving it up to the #61 rank. TEL is up a total of 534% in the past seven days and is currently trading for $0.044.
