Structure & Formations

Price action over the past 24 hours shows multiple bearish patterns, including a long upper shadow in the candle that closed at 0.802, suggesting rejection near key resistance. A doji formed during the overnight hours at 05:30 ET, indicating indecision and potential reversal near the 0.800 level. A key support level appears to be forming near 0.791–0.800, with several candles consolidating around that range.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20SMA and 50SMA are both below the price, reinforcing bearish momentum. On the daily chart, the 50DMA and 200DMA show price dipping below critical moving averages, which may signal a deeper correction. The 100DMA has yet to break significantly lower, indicating potential for a short-term rebound from current levels.

MACD & RSI

The RSI-14 shows signs of oversold territory at closing levels, hovering near 30, which could indicate short-term buying interest. The MACD line has crossed below the signal line with a bearish divergence, suggesting continued downward pressure over the next 48 hours unless a strong reversal candle forms.

Bollinger Bands and Volatility

Bollinger Bands have expanded in width, reflecting rising volatility, with price trading near the lower band for most of the session. This expansion may indicate a continuation of the current downtrend, especially with price failing to push above the midline. A sustained close above the upper band would signal a potential reversal.

Volume and Turnover

Volume has spiked significantly during key sell-offs, particularly after 14:00 ET when price broke below the 0.810 level. Despite declining price, turnover has not shown a proportional drop, indicating ongoing interest in the asset. However, price and volume appear to be diverging slightly during consolidation periods, which could indicate short-term uncertainty among traders.

Fibonacci Retracements

Fibonacci retracements applied to the recent 15-minute high (0.827) and low (0.791) suggest a key 61.8% level at approximately 0.808. Price has tested this area multiple times and appears to be consolidating. A break below 0.791 would confirm a deeper move toward the 38.2% retracement level at 0.798.

Backtest Hypothesis

With access to RSI-14 data, we could test an overbought/oversold-based strategy that enters longs at RSI < 30 (oversold) and exits after three days. This approach would help quantify whether recent bearish momentum could present a short-term reversal opportunity, especially if price holds above 0.791 in the coming days. Without RSI data, we recommend verifying the correct symbol format for future analysis, such as "BINANCE:TIAUSDT" or "TIAUSDT.PERP," to ensure accurate backtesting.
