Moving Averages

The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 5-minute chart have been trending lower for most of the session, but crossed over in the last two hours as price recovered. Daily 50/100/200 MA lines show Raydium still trading below all three, suggesting a bearish bias remains intact for longer-term trends.

Momentum & Volatility

RSI climbed into overbought territory in the final hours, peaking at 68-70 in the last 45-minute window. MACD crossed above the signal line around 04:00 ET, indicating renewed short-term bullish momentum. Volatility expanded significantly from 19:00 to 23:00 ET, with Bollinger Bands widening and price testing the lower band at 0.855.

Volume and Turnover

Volume surged during the 18:30–19:00 ET session as price dropped toward support, and again during the 04:00–06:00 ET rebound. Notional turnover confirmed the volume increases, with $100k+ in turnover observed in both key reversal windows. No material divergence between price and volume was observed.

Fibonacci Retracements

A 5-minute swing from 0.928 to 0.842 saw price finding support at the 61.8% level around 0.855, followed by a rebound to the 50% retracement at 0.885. If price breaks above 0.893, the next Fibonacci level to watch is 0.907, representing 38.2% of the previous downswing.

The market appears to be consolidating after a sharp intraday rebound from critical support. Traders may watch for a breakout above 0.893 or a breakdown below 0.87 for the next directional move. As with all volatile assets, sudden reversals remain a risk if liquidity or macro conditions shift unexpectedly in the next 24 hours.
