Structure & Formations

Price formed a descending pattern during the first half of the 24-hour window, with key support levels observed at 0.002960 and 0.002940. A bearish engulfing pattern appeared around 19:15 ET as price closed below the prior candle’s body. After 02:00 ET, buyers entered the market, forming a small bullish divergence with volume, but failed to break above 0.002990. A bearish continuation pattern emerged in the 14:00–15:00 ET window, as prices remained under the 0.003030 threshold.

Moving Averages and Bollinger Bands

Short-term moving averages (20/50) showed a bearish crossover early in the session, reinforcing the downtrend. The 50-period MA acted as a resistance near 0.002975–0.002980, preventing a full recovery. Bollinger Bands remained in a neutral to slightly constricted range, with prices staying within the band for most of the period. A narrow band width in the 04:00–06:00 ET window suggested a consolidation phase ahead of a breakout attempt.

MACD and RSI

MACD turned negative around 18:00 ET, confirming the bearish momentum. The histogram peaked in the first half of the session and remained below zero, signaling sustained bearish pressure. RSI dropped into oversold territory near 25 around 19:00–20:00 ET, but failed to trigger a strong rebound. A bearish divergence appeared between RSI and price in the final 3 hours, suggesting potential for a follow-through sell-off.

Volume and Turnover

Volume spiked during the early sell-off (17:00–21:00 ET) but declined during the rebound, indicating weakening buying interest. The highest notional turnover occurred around 22:15 ET with a volume of 15,668,395.69 and a price of 0.002974, while the lowest turnover was observed during the morning consolidation phase (04:00–05:00 ET). A negative volume divergence occurred between the 19:00–20:00 ET and 05:00–06:00 ET sessions, signaling bearish exhaustion may be near.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci retracements to the major swing from 0.003070 to 0.002940, key levels at 38.2% (0.002995) and 61.8% (0.002968) were tested. Price briefly bounced off the 61.8% level during the morning session before falling back. The 38.2% level coincided with the 0.002995 resistance, which was unable to hold due to weak volume. No clear Fibonacci consolidation pattern emerged, suggesting a potential continuation of the bearish trend.

Backtest Hypothesis

A potential backtesting strategy could involve a mean-reversion approach based on RSI and Bollinger Band contractions. When RSI dips below 25 and price closes near the lower Bollinger Band (within 0.1%) with a volume spike, a short-term long trade could be triggered. A stop-loss could be placed just below the nearest support level, with a take-profit at the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement. Given the recent RSI divergence and failed retests of 0.002990, the next 24 hours may offer a trade entry point if price closes below 0.002968 with a volume increase.
