The Cartesi/Bitcoin (CTSIBTC) pair opened at 5.9e-07 on October 9, 2025, at 12:00 ET and closed at the same level on October 10 at 12:00 ET. The high reached was 6.2e-07, while the low was 5.9e-07.

Over the 24-hour period, the pair exhibited a relatively stable price range between 5.9e-07 and 6.2e-07. There were a few instances where price tested the upper and lower boundaries, particularly in the early hours of October 10, but failed to sustain any directional movement. The most notable volume spikes occurred during the 18:30 ET and 14:15 ET sessions, coinciding with minor price fluctuations. These spikes suggest some short-term accumulation or distribution activity but lacked the volume to confirm a larger trend.

The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart were closely aligned, reflecting the consolidation. The MACD histogram showed little activity, with the MACD line hovering near the signal line, indicating weak momentum. RSI remained in the 40–60 range for most of the period, pointing to a balanced market. Bollinger Bands exhibited a moderate contraction in the early morning before expanding slightly, which could hint at a potential breakout in the coming hours.

Key support levels appeared to form at 5.9e-07, while resistance was observed at 6.2e-07. A few small bullish and bearish engulfing patterns emerged during the volume spikes, but none were strong enough to confirm a reversal. Fibonacci retracement levels at 38.2% and 61.8% aligned with recent intra-day pivots, suggesting possible psychological levels for traders to watch in the near term. However, the lack of follow-through volume on these levels implies weak conviction.

Backtest Hypothesis
The backtest strategy is centered on leveraging the MACD and RSI in tandem to identify potential reversal points in a range-bound market. The hypothesis is that in a sideways trend like the one observed in CTSIBTC, a cross of the MACD line above the signal line paired with an RSI dipping below 40 may signal a short-term bottoming process, while the inverse may indicate a near-term top. Given today’s data, such signals were not confirmed, and the strategy would likely remain neutral in this environment. However, the recent minor price corrections at key Fibonacci levels suggest that the strategy could be backtested on historical range-bound patterns to optimize entry thresholds and volume filters for better signal-to-noise ratios in similar conditions.
