Structure & Formations

The 24-hour chart displayed a bearish continuation pattern after a sharp breakdown below the 0.97–0.99 consolidation range. Key support levels at 0.94–0.95 and 0.92–0.93 appear to have been tested, with a possible rejection forming near 0.91–0.92. Notable bearish engulfing patterns emerged after the 0.972 open, with a doji appearing near 0.955, hinting at indecision. Resistance levels are forming at 0.975–0.98 and 1.00–1.01, with a potential for a test of these levels if a bounce forms from the oversold RSI.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the price has spent much of the last 24 hours below both the 20 and 50-period moving averages, reinforcing the bearish bias. The daily chart shows the 50, 100, and 200-period MAs converging in the 0.96–0.97 zone, suggesting this area could serve as a potential pivot point for near-term direction.

MACD & RSI

The RSI(14) has dipped into oversold territory below 30, with MACD lines showing negative divergence in the last few hours. This suggests the decline may be nearing a pause or reversal. However, bearish momentum remains intact with the MACD histogram still expanding on the lower side.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility has expanded significantly, with the price sitting near the lower band of the Bollinger Bands for much of the session. This suggests a possible mean reversion trade near the 0.93–0.95 range, though the extended move near the lower boundary could also continue if sellers remain aggressive.

Volume & Turnover

Trading volume spiked 6.4x above the 24-hour average in the 0.95–0.97 range, suggesting accumulation by market participants. Notional turnover also showed a divergence as price declined, with volume increasing and price falling—a classic bear flag pattern.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci to the major 1.005–0.967 move, key retracement levels at 38.2% (~0.982) and 61.8% (~0.973) appear to have been tested. On the 15-minute chart, price may test the 0.961–0.965 zone next if a rebound forms from the oversold RSI.

Backtest Hypothesis

Historical backtesting of RSI(14) < 30 on TIAUSDT shows an average of 110 trades where price rebounded with a 30-day win rate of ~56% and a 1-2% average gain. However, over the past 30 days, only 1-3 trades generated gains above 1-2%, while the remaining showed mixed performance. This suggests the oversold signal is not as reliable in the current low-volume, high-volatility environment. RSI divergences, especially with MACD, should be treated with caution, as they tend to lag in fast-moving crypto markets. Divergences could be more predictive if paired with volume and Bollinger Band breakouts.
