Structure & Formations

The 15-minute candlestick chart shows a sharp bullish impulse from 17:00–19:45 ET, peaking at 0.1096, followed by a series of bearish hammers and spinning tops that suggest weakening momentum. A significant bearish engulfing pattern formed at 22:15–22:30 ET near 0.1067, which marked a turning point in the downward move. A bullish morning star pattern is visible at 04:15–04:45 ET near 0.1025, which could signal a short-term rebound.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages cross multiple times during the day, indicating mixed short-term direction. The 50-period MA is currently around 0.1038, while the 20-period MA is slightly lower at 0.1032, suggesting a bearish bias for now. On a daily scale, the 50, 100, and 200-period MAs are converging near 0.1035–0.1040, reinforcing a potential support cluster.

MACD & RSI

The MACD line turned bearish from 19:45 ET onward, confirming the reversal in momentum. RSI peaked above 75 during the rally, indicating overbought conditions, and dropped below 50 by 21:15 ET. RSI is currently at 48, suggesting balanced but uncertain momentum. A divergence between price and RSI during the final 4 hours of the session hints at potential short-term consolidation.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility expanded early in the session with the bands widening to 0.005 by 19:30 ET, but they began to contract after 20:00 ET. Price action remained within the bands for most of the session, with a brief overextension to the upper band at 0.1096. The recent tightening of bands post-18:00 ET suggests a potential breakout or sideways move in the next 24 hours.

Volume & Turnover

The highest volume spike occurred at 17:30–17:45 ET with 1.35 million contracts traded, coinciding with a sharp rise from 0.1055 to 0.1064. The rally from 17:00–19:45 ET was strongly volume-confirmed. However, after 22:00 ET, volume declined despite continued price weakness, indicating waning conviction. Turnover also peaked during the rally but has not confirmed the bearish leg downward.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci to the 15-minute move from 0.1023 to 0.1096, the 61.8% level at 0.1070 was briefly tested but failed as a support. The 38.2% level at 0.1058 has held twice in the afternoon, suggesting it may act as a temporary floor. On the daily chart, the 38.2% retracement of the recent low-to-high swing is around 0.1035, aligning with the moving average cluster and forming a potential key level.

Forward-Looking View

Price could retest the 0.1035–0.1040 support area in the next 24 hours, with a potential bounce if RSI and volume confirm the move. A breakout above 0.1058 may signal a reversal, but traders should remain cautious of bearish momentum indicators and potential short-term distribution.

Backtest Hypothesis

A potential backtest could involve using the 20-period MA as a dynamic support/resistance level, with long entries when price retests and closes above the MA during a confirmed divergence in RSI or volume. Conversely, short entries could be considered when price breaks below the 20-period MA, especially during a bearish engulfing pattern and declining volume. Combining these conditions may filter high-probability trade setups in this volatile environment.
