Over the 24-hour period, total volume amounted to 25,858,784.2 and notional turnover reached 22,159,153.9 USDT.

Structural Formations

Key support levels emerged at 0.8501–0.8409 and 0.8302–0.8227, with 0.8409 acting as a critical short-term support following a bearish breakdown. Resistance levels were found at 0.8697–0.8791 and 0.8872–0.8932, the latter marked by a failed attempt to reclaim higher ground. Notable candlestick patterns included a bullish engulfing at 0.8679–0.8791 and a bearish dark cloud cover at 0.8815–0.8793, indicating conflicting sentiment.

Technical Indicators

The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart crossed bearishly, with the 50-period line holding above the 20-period line as a bearish signal. MACD showed a bearish crossover and negative divergence from late into the night, reinforcing bearish momentum. RSI was in oversold territory (around 30) at 04:00 ET but failed to spark a significant rebound, suggesting exhaustion among buyers. Bollinger Bands tightened from 02:00 to 03:45 ET before the price broke lower, indicating a possible bearish breakout.

Fibonacci Retracements and Volatility

Fibonacci retracement levels on the 15-minute chart identified 61.8% at 0.8738 and 38.2% at 0.8791, both of which were tested during the night but failed to hold. A major daily swing from 0.8932 to 0.8227 saw 61.8% at 0.8616 as a potential short-term support. Volatility increased significantly after 02:00 ET, with volume surging at key breakdowns, especially near 0.8409 and 0.8302.

Forward Outlook and Risk

Over the next 24 hours, the market appears to be testing key support at 0.8409 and 0.8302. A break below 0.8302 could target 0.8227. However, any rally above 0.8456 and a sustained close above 0.8501 could signal a bearish reversal. Investors should watch for divergences in the MACD and RSI to confirm any short-term trend changes.

Backtest Hypothesis

The proposed backtesting strategy involves entering short positions on a 15-minute chart when price closes below the 50-period moving average and RSI drops below 30, with a stop-loss placed just above the nearest Fibonacci 61.8% level. This would align with the observed bearish divergence and breakdown pattern. A target is set at the next key support level identified on the 1-hour and daily charts, such as 0.8302 or 0.8227. A confirmation of this strategy would require at least three consecutive bearish 15-minute candles with closing prices below the 50-period MA and RSI below 30, while volume spikes suggest conviction from sellers.
