15-minute moving averages (20/50) and daily moving averages (50/100/200) suggest a short-term bearish bias, with the 50-period line acting as a dynamic ceiling. The MACD showed a bearish crossover at 03:30 ET and remained negative for most of the session, reinforcing the downward bias. RSI, while not reaching oversold territory, showed a pullback into neutral-to-moderate bearish levels, with no clear signs of immediate reversal.

Bollinger Bands displayed a moderate expansion during the overnight and early morning hours, indicating increased volatility as the market tested the 0.002693 support zone. Price has since consolidated within the bands, hovering closer to the lower band, which may suggest further bearish pressure in the near term. Volatility appears to be stabilizing, with a contraction expected ahead of the next directional move.

Volume activity was front-loaded, with a surge between 03:30 and 04:30 ET coinciding with the formation of key support. Turnover spiked at 04:30 ET with a large 104.3089 BTC trade at 0.002727, confirming the bearish breakdown. Price and turnover generally aligned during the key moves, suggesting liquidity is present but not yet overwhelming. A divergence was noted between price and RSI during the final two hours, which may indicate a pause in the move or a temporary pause in bearish momentum.

Fibonacci retracements applied to the key 0.002641–0.002769 swing show the current level at approximately 61.8% (0.002712), a historically significant level for potential bounce or continuation. Daily-level retracements also highlight the 0.002693–0.002712 range as a critical pivot area.

The pair may see renewed short-term bearish pressure if the 0.002693–0.002689 support zone fails to hold. A break below that would likely target 0.002674–0.002671 as the next test. However, a bullish rebound off this area could see a retest of the 0.002726–0.002736 range. Investors should be cautious about overexposure ahead of the next 24-hour window and monitor volume behavior near key levels.

Backtest Hypothesis

The described backtesting strategy involves entering a short position when the 20-period and 50-period moving averages cross below the 100-period line on the 15-minute chart, and a stop-loss is placed at the recent swing high. A take-profit target is set at 1.618 of the recent bearish move from the entry point. Over the past 24 hours, such a signal was triggered at 03:30 ET when the 20/50 crossover occurred below the 100-period line, with a stop-loss at 0.002756 and a target at 0.002641. The strategy would have captured the full 0.000115 move (4.2% downside), demonstrating the potential for a high-risk/reward trade in a structured bearish setup.
