Structure & Formations

Price formed bearish engulfing patterns on the 5-minute chart from 18:00 to 19:00 ET and a dark cloud cover near 0.001220, suggesting short-term bearish bias.

A 0.001220–0.001225 cluster acted as a failed resistance-turned-support, and a 0.001200–0.001205 area showed consolidation.

Moving Averages

The 20- and 50-period 5-minute moving averages crossed lower during the sell-off, reinforcing bearish momentum. On the daily chart, the 50-period MA was above the 200-period MA, suggesting medium-term bullishness but short-term bearish deviation.

Momentum Indicators

MACD crossed into bearish territory after 02:00 ET, and RSI dipped into oversold levels below 30, hinting at a possible bounce from 0.001193. However, the overbought reading earlier at 0.001220–0.001241 indicated exhaustion before the reversal.

Volatility and Volume

Volatility expanded significantly after 02:00 ET as price broke below key support. Volume spiked to over 7.9M during this move, confirming the bearish breakout. Turnover aligned with the volume, showing no divergence and validating the move.

Bollinger Bands and Fibonacci

Price moved outside the Bollinger Band lower boundary at 0.001193, suggesting high volatility. Fibonacci retracements from the 0.001241 high to the 0.001193 low placed key levels at 0.001216 (38.2%) and 0.001204 (61.8%), areas to watch for potential reversals.

The price appears to have completed a sharp retracement from recent highs, with potential for a short-term bounce from oversold levels. However, the breakdown of 0.001220 support raises risk of further downside toward 0.001180–0.001185. Investors should monitor the 0.001200–0.001205 area for signs of a rebound.
