Bitcoin is technically over $7,000 ($7,002) but I expect it to go below this level in the next hours.

STEEM And SBD

At the moment of writing, STEEM was trading, on average, at $1.17 on Coinmarketcap, down from yesterday in fiat but up in BTC.

On the 1 hour chart, STEEM shows a nice rebound from 15k satoshis, maintained solidly up to 16.5k satoshis

The 1 day chart is showing a few green candles breaking the descending trend line of the last 3 months, but the volume is way too low to indicate a breakout

SBD was trading, at the moment of writing, at $1.07, down in fiat from yesterday, but up in BTC.

The 1 hour chart shows a small upwards correction, to 15k satoshis

Overall opinion: Markets are continuing the bearish trend started at the end of last week. As Bitcoin goes down, STEEM / SBD are going up in BTC, although in fiat they're losing value. This "slingshot" move makes me believe that, despite this strong correction, the market is healthy again, and we're going to see nice things happening. Sooner or later.
