The Lombard/Tether pair, trading under the symbol BARDUSDT, opened at 0.6547 at 12:00 ET – 1 and closed at 0.6452 by 12:00 ET the following day. The 24-hour low was 0.6384, while the high reached 0.6527. Total trading volume stood at 703,795.3 contracts, with a notional turnover of $449,026.40 (based on volume × price). The price action has shown consistent bearish bias, especially in the overnight and early morning hours, followed by a moderate attempt at consolidation in the afternoon.

The structure of the past 24 hours shows a dominant bearish bias, with the price failing to retest key resistance levels above 0.6500. A series of bearish engulfing patterns were observed between 22:30 and 01:00 ET, while a morning rebound failed to close above 0.6502. Notable support levels have formed around 0.6407 and 0.6418, with a bearish breakout occurring after 03:15 ET. A potential reversal pattern began forming after 09:30 ET, but volume failed to confirm a bullish shift, suggesting caution in interpreting the reversal.

The RSI has dipped into oversold territory during the early hours, reaching a low of 28, which may signal exhaustion in the downward move. However, the MACD remained bearish throughout, with the line consistently below the signal line. This indicates sustained selling pressure despite the RSI suggesting a potential short-term bounce. Bollinger Bands show a moderate expansion following the overnight selloff, with the price currently hovering near the lower band, which supports a continuation of the bearish trend.

Volume activity has shown two key surges—first in the early morning (01:15–03:15 ET) and again in the late afternoon (14:45–16:00 ET). While the first spike aligned with a strong price decline, the second did not confirm a reversal, instead leading to a retest of the 0.6450 level. This divergence between price and volume suggests caution ahead. Fibonacci retracements drawn from the 0.6384 low to the 0.6527 high show 0.6484 and 0.6504 as possible retest levels for buyers. A sustained move above 0.6504 could trigger a short-term bounce, but this seems unlikely without strong volume confirmation.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtest strategy outlined assumes a systematic trading approach targeting short-term reversals in the BARDUSDT pair, relying on RSI overbought/oversold conditions and confirmed volume spikes to signal entry points. In this context, the RSI hitting oversold levels during the early morning hours would qualify as a potential long entry condition, particularly if volume surges and the MACD begins to align with price. A backtest incorporating daily entries on RSI <30, volume > 30,000, and a bullish MACD crossover could help quantify the viability of this approach. However, given the current context—where volume has failed to confirm price—such signals should be treated with caution. Integrating a 20-period EMA as a dynamic support line might further refine trade entries and exits, particularly in volatile or choppy markets.
