Structure & Formations

Price action over the last 24 hours shows a clear bearish trend, with a key descending pattern forming from $173.0 to $165.5. A bearish engulfing pattern occurred at $173.0, followed by a long lower shadow at $172.5, indicating rejection of higher levels. Key support levels appear to be forming at $171.0 and $169.0, with a strong break below $168.0 triggering further declines into the $164.0 range. A potential bounce may be forming off the $164.5–$165.5 range, marked by a series of lower highs and lower lows.

Moving Averages and Indicators

On the 15-minute chart, price has spent most of the session below the 20- and 50-period moving averages, reinforcing the bearish bias. On the daily chart, the 50- and 100-day moving averages are converging from below, which may signal a potential reversal if price manages to break above them. The 200-day moving average remains a distant bearish reference at $175.0. The RSI is currently at 28, suggesting the pair is in oversold territory, though without a clear reversal confirmation, this does not necessarily imply a bounce.

MACD remains bearish, with the histogram contracting as the crossover between the signal and the line remains negative. The divergence between price and MACD is minimal, supporting the continuation of the current trend.

Bollinger Bands and Volatility

Bollinger Bands have widened significantly, reflecting the increased volatility associated with the sharp decline from $173.0 to $164.0. Price has now broken below the lower band, which often signals a potential exhaustion of the bearish move, or at least a possible pause. The current price sits just below the lower band, with a potential retest of the band floor expected to occur around $164.5–$165.0.

Volume and Turnover

Volume activity has been uneven, with a notable drop-off after the 09:30 ET session. A large bar at $164.0 on the 09:45 ET candle shows increased bearish pressure. Turnover has been concentrated in the $170.0–$166.0 range, suggesting significant liquidation or profit-taking activity. Price and turnover are aligned in the bearish direction, with no clear divergence observed.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci retracements to the most recent swing from $173.0 to $164.0, the 38.2% level is at $169.0 and the 61.8% level is at $165.4. Price appears to be consolidating near the 61.8% level, which may serve as a temporary floor. A break below $165.4 could see the pair testing the 78.6% level at $163.0. These levels will be critical in the next 24 hours for confirming whether the bearish trend continues or a short-term bounce emerges.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtesting strategy under consideration is based on a combination of RSI overbought/oversold signals and price action reversal patterns. The hypothesis is that when RSI enters oversold territory (below 30) and is confirmed by a bullish engulfing or hammer pattern, a short-term bounce is likely. Given the current RSI at 28 and the hammer-like pattern at $165.5, this condition is met. However, without a clear break above the 20-period moving average or the Bollinger Band floor, this signal should be treated as a potential short-term bounce rather than a trend reversal. A stop-loss below $164.0 would help manage risk, while a target of $169.0 could mark a viable short-term profit level.
