Immutable/Bitcoin (IMXBTC) opened the 24-hour period at 7.47e-06 and reached a high of 7.55e-06 before falling to a low of 7.17e-06, closing at 7.17e-06. Total trading volume was 143,585.85 units, with a notional turnover of approximately $1,014,665. The price action reflects bearish bias and a potential exhaustion in the upper range.

Structure & Formations

The 24-hour period displayed key support levels at 7.2e-06 and 7.17e-06, both of which were tested multiple times. A bearish engulfing pattern formed between 22:30 and 00:00 ET, confirming the shift in control to sellers. A doji appeared near the session’s low at 7.17e-06, signaling indecision. Resistance remains at 7.35e-06 and 7.45e-06, with the former failing to hold after a brief rebound attempt. Price may retest these levels for clarity on near-term direction.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period MA acted as a dynamic resistance throughout the session, with the price unable to hold above it. The 50-period MA has been descending, aligning with the overall bearish bias. On the daily chart, the 50-period MA sits at 7.35e-06, with the 200-period MA at 7.4e-06—both key psychological and technical barriers for any near-term recovery.

MACD & RSI

The MACD turned negative after 20:00 ET, showing a bearish crossover and diverging from the price action as it dropped to new lows. The RSI crossed below 30, indicating oversold conditions, but failed to trigger a strong rebound, suggesting limited short-covering or buying pressure. A bullish reversal may require a strong MACD divergence or a close above the 20-period MA.

Bollinger Bands

Price traded near the lower Bollinger Band for most of the session, especially between 19:00 and 20:00 ET. The bands expanded after the breakout to 7.17e-06, indicating increased volatility. A close above the upper band would signal a reversal, but the current configuration supports bearish continuation.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked at 7.17e-06, with 7,385.89 units traded at that level, marking the largest single 15-minute bar. The increase in volume at the session’s low confirmed bearish conviction. However, turnover lagged at lower levels, suggesting possible retail participation rather than institutional strength. A divergence between volume and price could signal exhaustion if bullish traders attempt to push price above 7.3e-06.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci levels to the 24-hour swing from 7.55e-06 to 7.17e-06, the 38.2% retracement is at 7.35e-06, the 61.8% at 7.29e-06, and the 78.6% at 7.24e-06. The 7.2e-06 level acted as temporary support, and a break below the 78.6% retracement could trigger further downside.

Backtest Hypothesis

The described backtesting strategy focuses on a combination of RSI divergence and volume confirmation to identify potential reversal points. Given today's bearish momentum and oversold RSI, a short-term reversal could be considered if volume picks up at 7.17e-06 and price fails to break below it. A buy signal may be triggered if RSI crosses above 50 with rising volume, aligning with a 50-period MA crossover on the 15-minute chart.
