As shown on the 4-hour timeframe, there is a neutral doji candlestick, showing bulls and bears are in contention on the direction Bitcoin price will take.

Also, on the hourly time frame the RSI has dipped into oversold territory and traders will likely look for an oversold bounce shortly.

In such a situation, traders will need to keep an eye on trading volume as the price will need to clear the 20-MA ($9,300) to restore the bullish momentum seen on June 8.
