A strong candle closed near the high at 0.003314, forming a potential bullish continuation pattern.

Key support levels were observed near 0.003287–0.003291 and 0.003263–0.003265, while 0.003306 and 0.003316 acted as strong resistances.

Moving Averages

The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart showed a bullish crossover around 0.003297–0.003295, reinforcing the bullish bias in the short term. The 50-period MA on the daily chart hovered near 0.003292, aligning with the recent consolidation. No strong bearish divergence was observed between the 20 and 50-period MAs, suggesting the upward trend remains intact.

MACD & RSI

The 15-minute MACD crossed above zero early in the session, reaching a peak of 0.0000065 at 0.003307 before pulling back slightly. RSI hovered between 55 and 62 for most of the session, indicating steady but not aggressive momentum. At the close, RSI stood at 58, suggesting that while buying interest remained, overbought territory (70+) was still some distance away.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility spiked following the midday break above 0.003300, with the bands widening to 0.0000028 range. At the close, price sat just below the upper band at 0.003314, suggesting continued bullish pressure but also raising the possibility of a near-term consolidation or pullback if it fails to break through.

Volume & Turnover

Volume surged during the 15-minute period ending at 0.003307 (0.003307–0.003306) with nearly 3.5 million COS traded. This was followed by a bearish pullback with lower volume, indicating potential profit-taking or short-term bearish pressure. The divergence between price and volume during the bearish phase suggests caution ahead.

Fibonacci Retracements

A key 15-minute swing from 0.003167 to 0.003316 showed a 61.8% retracement level at 0.003269, which held as a minor support during the afternoon. On the daily chart, the 50% retracement of the previous major downtrend (if applicable) was near 0.003292, aligning with the 50-period MA.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtesting strategy proposed a trend-following approach based on a crossover of the 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart, combined with confirmation from the RSI and MACD. A long position would be entered when the 20-period MA crosses above the 50-period MA, RSI crosses above 50, and MACD turns positive. Stops would be placed below key support levels, and targets would be set at the next Fibonacci resistance or Bollinger Band upper level. This strategy appears well-suited for COSUSDT’s recent price behavior and could have captured the bullish surge mid-day while managing risk with tight stop-loss levels.
