Volume & Turnover

Volume surged above 175K at 20:00 and 05:45 ET, with corresponding notional turnover exceeding 26K and 27K USDT respectively.

Fibonacci Retracements

Key Fibonacci retracement levels from the 0.1512–0.1559 swing include 0.1528 (38.2%), 0.1539 (50%), and 0.1549 (61.8%). The pair found support at 0.1528 during the Asian session and consolidated near the 50% level for the remainder of the day. On the daily chart, Fibonacci levels from the prior week suggest 0.1530 and 0.1545 as critical pivot points.

Backtest Hypothesis

A potential backtest strategy could focus on long entries near the 50% Fibonacci retracement level during high-volume candle formations, with a target at the 61.8% level and a stop-loss below the 38.2% level. This approach would leverage the observed bullish bias and strong support at 0.1530–0.1535, particularly during periods of low volatility followed by sharp price expansions. A trailing stop could be applied as the pair approaches key resistance levels above 0.1550.
