FLOKI/Tether (FLOKIUSDT) opened at $0.00009117 on October 9 at 12:00 ET and closed at $0.00008853 at 12:00 ET October 10, reaching a high of $0.00009530 and a low of $0.00008758. Total 24-hour trading volume amounted to 35,315,434,660.00, with a notional turnover of approximately $3,201,869.87.

The candlestick pattern over the 24-hour period displayed a bearish bias following a late-day push toward $0.000095. A strong bullish candle at 15:30 ET (9:30 PM UTC) attempted to retest the $0.000092–$0.000095 range, which had previously acted as resistance and support, but failed to hold. A long upper shadow formed at the peak, signaling rejection. Later, a bearish engulfing pattern emerged around $0.0000915–$0.000092, confirming a potential reversal. A doji near $0.00008950 also suggested indecision in the market.

Key support levels identified include $0.000092 (initial retest), $0.0000896, and $0.00008758. Resistance levels are at $0.000092–$0.000095 and $0.000097. On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages crossed over, indicating a potential short-term bearish shift. The 20-period MA moved below the 50-period MA in the final hours, reinforcing bearish sentiment. On the daily chart, the 50-period and 200-period MA remain bullish, but recent price action appears to diverge from the longer-term trend.

The RSI crossed into overbought territory twice, peaking at 64.3 and 61.7, but failed to trigger a sustained rally. Conversely, it dipped into oversold conditions near 36.2, failing to elicit a significant bounce. MACD showed a bearish crossover in the final 4 hours, with a negative histogram, aligning with the downward drift in price. Bollinger Bands widened significantly after 18:00 ET (UTC), indicating rising volatility and a probable continuation pattern. Price remained within the band’s range, but the widening suggests a potential breakout or pullback is imminent.

Volume and turnover spiked sharply after 18:00 ET (UTC), with the largest 15-minute volume of 5.459294276 billion at $0.000092. A price-volume divergence was observed between 21:00 and 21:45 ET (UTC), where volume surged while price drifted lower, suggesting a weakening bullish trend. Turnover spiked at $0.000093 and $0.000095, confirming key psychological levels were being tested and rejected.

Fibonacci retracements drawn from the $0.00008758 to $0.00009530 swing identified 38.2% at $0.0000913 and 61.8% at $0.0000894. The price briefly held at the 61.8% level before breaking below, signaling bearish continuation. Daily Fibonacci levels also showed the 38.2% and 61.8% retracements at $0.0000916 and $0.0000886, respectively, aligning with recent support levels.

Backtest Hypothesis
The backtesting strategy under consideration is a trend-following breakout system that enters long when price closes above the upper Bollinger Band (20-period, 2 std) and exits on a close below the middle band, or vice versa for shorting. Stops are placed at the opposite Bollinger Band or based on Fibonacci retracement levels. With today’s widening bands and test of the upper and lower boundaries, this strategy would have generated at least two potential triggers — one bullish and one bearish — with the latter being confirmed by the close below $0.00008950. The system would suggest a short bias for the next 24 hours, with a stop at $0.000092 and a target near $0.00008700, aligning with the observed Fibonacci 61.8% retracement level.
