Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked with the 0.02044 high, but turnover did not follow with equivalent strength, signaling a potential lack of conviction. A divergence between volume and price occurred during the 0.02033–0.02027 consolidation phase, hinting at weakening bullish momentum.

Fibonacci Retracements

On the 5-min chart, the 61.8% Fibonacci level at 0.02038 was a key resistance area, which the pair briefly touched but failed to surpass. On the daily chart, a 38.2% retracement at 0.0203 may offer near-term resistance ahead of the 61.8% level at 0.0205.

Price may test the 0.0202–0.0203 consolidation zone over the next 24 hours, with a possible pullback toward 0.0201 if RSI overbought conditions trigger profit-taking. Investors should remain cautious of volatility if the 0.02044 level breaks with confirmation in volume and turnover.
