Structure & Formations

RVNUSDT exhibited a bullish bias in the early evening hours, forming a bullish engulfing pattern at $0.01318, which briefly pushed the pair above $0.01320. However, this pattern failed to hold, and the price reversed lower, forming a bearish inside bar near the $0.01316 level. The $0.01314 level acted as a key Fibonacci 38.2% retracement, and the $0.01306 level, a 61.8% retracement, offered strong support later in the session. A doji formed near $0.01324 during a consolidation phase, signaling indecision among traders.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period MA rose sharply from $0.01311 to $0.01316, while the 50-period MA lagged slightly behind, creating a bullish divergence. On the daily chart, the 50-period MA sat at $0.01305, just below the closing price, and the 200-period MA at $0.01298 provided a long-term floor. The price currently sits above all major MAs, indicating a short-term bullish trend with a potential pullback to the 50 MA on the daily chart.

MACD & RSI

The MACD turned bearish after 17:00 ET as the pair tested key support levels. The line crossed below the signal line and trended lower, signaling a potential bearish momentum shift. The RSI reached 62.2, indicating overbought conditions, and has since declined to 49.8, approaching neutral territory. A pullback to the RSI 30 level would be necessary for a bearish confirmation, but a retest of the 61.8% retracement at $0.01314 could reignite bullish momentum.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility expanded during the session, with the upper Bollinger Band reaching $0.01326 and the lower band touching $0.01304. The price oscillated between these boundaries, with a notable congestion phase forming near $0.01312–$0.01316. The current close near $0.01306 sits just above the 2-standard deviation lower band, suggesting that further volatility may be due. A break above $0.01318 could trigger a mean reversion to the upper band.

Volume & Turnover

The most significant volume spike occurred at 17:15 ET, with 2.4M RVN traded on a $0.01323 close. This coincided with a $0.01324 high and a $0.01320 low, indicating a high-conviction rally. Turnover at that point reached $30,800, with a notable divergence appearing between the rally and turnover as the price later rolled over. Volume has since declined, with $1.2M traded in the last 6 hours, suggesting positioning for a potential breakout.

Fibonacci Retracements

Key Fibonacci levels played a central role in the day’s price action. The 61.8% retracement at $0.01306 acted as a strong support level during the late trading session, with volume increasing as the price approached this area. The 38.2% retracement at $0.01314 acted as a pivot point, with the price forming a bullish flag pattern before reversing lower. A retest of the 78.6% retracement at $0.01320 could trigger a bullish continuation if buyers reenter.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtesting strategy under consideration involves short-term entries on a bullish engulfing pattern at key Fibonacci levels, specifically 38.2% and 61.8% retracements, with stops placed below the 50-period MA and targets at the Bollinger upper band. The recent bullish engulfing pattern at $0.01318 aligns with this setup, but the failure to hold above $0.01320 suggests the strategy may need a tighter stop or a trailing target based on MACD divergence. A successful breakout above $0.01318 with a volume confirmation spike could validate the pattern and signal a potential $0.01326 target.
