The pair experienced a sharp decline from 0.0761 to 0.074, breaking below the 0.075 support level. A bearish engulfing pattern formed around 01:30 ET, and a dark cloud cover pattern emerged after the 02:00 ET low. Price appears to have found short-term support near 0.074–0.0745, which may act as a floor in the near term. The 0.0755–0.0761 range now appears to be a key resistance cluster.

Momentum and Indicators

RSI dropped into oversold territory during the 0.0742 low, suggesting potential for a short-term bounce. However, the MACD remained bearish with a negative histogram, indicating continued downward momentum. Both indicators point to a period of consolidation and possible reversal if buyers re-enter above 0.075.

Volatility and Bollinger Bands

Bollinger Bands expanded significantly between 02:00 and 05:00 ET, reflecting increased volatility. Price traded near the lower band during the 0.074–0.0745 range, indicating oversold conditions. If volatility stabilizes and price remains above 0.0742, it may signal a potential reversal.

Volume and Turnover

Volume surged past 700k during the 03:00–05:00 ET period on a sharp drop from 0.0761 to 0.074, confirming bearish sentiment. Turnover aligned with volume, showing no divergence. The 0.074–0.0745 range saw strong volume absorption, reinforcing the idea that this is a key support zone.

Fibonacci Retracements

On the 5-min chart, the 38.2% retracement level at 0.0748 and 61.8% at 0.0753 appear to be key levels of interest. On the daily chart, the 61.8% retracement from the recent swing high at 0.0761 is at 0.0751, which aligns with recent price action. These levels may determine the next directional move.

Forward Outlook
Price appears to be consolidating near 0.074–0.0745, with potential for a short-term bounce. A break above 0.0755 could re-ignite bullish sentiment, while a close below 0.0742 may extend the downward trend. Investors should monitor volume at key Fibonacci and Bollinger Band levels for confirmation signals.
