The Loopring/Tether (LRCUSDT) pair opened at 0.0871 on October 5 at 12:00 ET and closed at 0.0860 on October 6 at 12:00 ET, with an intraday high of 0.0879 and a low of 0.0843. The total volume traded over the 24-hour period was 5.07 million LRC, and the notional turnover was approximately $440,000.

The price action suggests a bearish shift, marked by a breakdown below the key 0.0873 level and a failure to recover during the overnight session. A series of bearish engulfing patterns and a long-tailed doji during the early morning hours indicate waning bullish momentum and heightened uncertainty among traders.

The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart crossed bearishly, reinforcing the downward bias. The 50-period moving average on the daily chart is still above the current price, indicating a broader bearish trend. The MACD histogram has turned negative, showing weakening bullish momentum and rising bearish pressure. RSI dipped below 30 at 0.085, signaling oversold conditions, although a rebound back into that range may be expected if the downtrend persists.

Bollinger Bands are narrow, with prices currently near the lower band, suggesting a potential for a short-term bounce. However, without a strong move above the 0.0864 resistance level, further consolidation near 0.0850 is likely. Volume has increased during the decline, particularly after 18:00 ET on October 5, indicating strong bearish conviction.

Fibonacci retracement levels from the recent high to low show that 0.0852 (38.2%) and 0.0862 (61.8%) could act as potential support and resistance levels respectively, depending on whether a reversal or continuation occurs.

The pair may test the 0.0850 level in the next 24 hours, but risks of a breakdown are increasing, especially if volume remains elevated. Investors should be cautious about long positions and consider tighter stop-loss levels near 0.0845 in case of further deterioration.

Backtest Hypothesis

Given the bearish momentum observed in the 15-minute timeframe — characterized by a breakdown in key levels and bearish divergence in the RSI and MACD — a potential backtesting strategy could involve a short entry near 0.0862 with a stop-loss just above 0.0870 and a target near 0.0845. The strategy could be activated when RSI crosses below 30 and the price breaks below the 20-period EMA on the 15-minute chart. A trailing stop could be considered as the price approaches 0.0852 to lock in gains if a bounce occurs. While this setup shows high probability in the current environment, its performance will depend on broader market conditions and liquidity during rapid price moves.
