Structure & Formations

Price action shows a broad bearish trend, with a key low at 0.02309. A bearish engulfing pattern formed at 19:45 ET (0.02369 to 0.02351), followed by an inside bar at 0.02344. A doji near 0.02310 in the overnight session suggests indecision. Resistance is forming at 0.02334–0.02339, while support sits at 0.02310–0.02315. These levels appear to be psychological price anchors and could see renewed testing.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, price closed below the 50-period (0.02334) and 20-period (0.02341) moving averages, suggesting bearish momentum. Daily data indicates a possible 50/100/200 EMA crossover forming, which could confirm a larger trend reversal. However, the 20-period line has yet to cross the 50-period, so a bearish signal is still pending.

MACD & RSI

MACD lines have been negative since 19:00 ET, with a bearish crossover between the signal and histogram lines. RSI dipped below 30 at 0.02310, indicating oversold conditions. However, volume during this phase was high, suggesting that sellers may still be in control. A RSI rebound to 35–38 could indicate a temporary bounce, but a break below 28 could signal deeper bearishness.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility expanded after 18:00 ET as price broke below the lower band, reaching 0.02309. Price has since moved back into the band but remains near the lower edge, suggesting ongoing bearish pressure. A return above the 20-period band midpoint (0.02331) would indicate a short-term reversal, though this may be unlikely without higher volume confirmation.

Volume & Turnover

Trading volume spiked at 19:45 ET (1,313,510) and 20:00 ET (580,311), but notional turnover failed to confirm this, remaining muted. A divergence between volume and price during the 20:00–20:30 ET range suggests that traders may be accumulating the dip. However, price failed to close above the 20-period MA, indicating bearish sentiment remains strong.

Fibonacci Retracements

On a 15-minute swing from 0.02423 to 0.02309, price retraced to 0.02321 (38.2%) before stalling. The 61.8% level at 0.02315 has now become a critical support area. A break below this would target 0.02297–0.02302. Daily Fibonacci levels from 0.02416 to 0.02309 show 0.02346 (38.2%) as a near-term resistance, currently acting as a cap.

Backtest Hypothesis

A backtest based on a 1-day hold after a death cross (50/200 EMA crossover) was proposed. While the current 15-minute chart shows a potential death cross forming, the daily chart remains neutral. A 1-day hold strategy would likely require confirmation from the daily MACD and RSI before entering a short position. If the 50 EMA crosses the 200 EMA on a daily timeframe, a bearish trade could be justified with a stop above 0.02349 and a target at 0.02290. However, the recent volatility divergence suggests caution in relying solely on the death cross as an entry trigger.
