Structure & Formations

The 15-minute OHLCV data shows a consistent breakdown from key levels, with a notable bearish engulfing pattern forming around 0.9557–0.9519 and a doji at 0.9463–0.9470. These patterns signal indecision and potential exhaustion in the rally. A critical support level at 0.9202 is now at risk, with 0.9141 and 0.9055 marking the next potential support targets. Resistance remains firm at 0.9587 and 0.9634, which may act as short-term ceilings if a rebound occurs.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20 and 50-period SMAs are both in bearish alignment, confirming the downtrend. The price is well below both, suggesting bearish continuation. On the daily chart, the 50/100/200 SMAs are aligned bearishly, with the 50-period line crossing below the 100-period, reinforcing the bearish trend.

MACD & RSI

The MACD shows a bearish crossover with the signal line, while the histogram contracts, indicating weakening momentum. RSI is trending downward into the oversold territory (32–38), suggesting a potential short-term rebound may be near. However, divergence between the RSI and price (bearish on price, neutral on RSI) implies caution: buyers may be hesitant to step in, and any rally is likely to be short-lived.

Bollinger Bands

Bollinger Bands have tightened over the past 8 hours, indicating a period of consolidation before a potential breakout. Price has remained near the lower band for the last 12 hours, with occasional minor retracements. This pattern could suggest a low-volatility environment before a sharp move, either up or down, depending on breakout direction and volume confirmation.

Volume & Turnover

Volume distribution shows a gradual increase over the past 10 hours, with no major divergence from the price decline. Turnover has been steady, with no sharp spikes in either direction. The lack of divergence suggests the bearish trend is still supported by consistent selling. A sharp volume increase at key support levels could confirm a bounce or a breakdown.

Fibonacci Retracements

Fibonacci levels applied to the most recent 15-minute swing (0.9587–0.9322) show the price testing the 61.8% retracement at 0.9444 before breaking below. On a broader daily scale, the 61.8% retracement of the recent bear leg (0.9758–0.9055) lies near 0.9357, which may offer some technical resistance. The 38.2% level is at 0.9487, already tested and failed.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtest strategy described assumes a bearish breakout from a tightening Bollinger Band consolidation phase, confirmed by a closing candle below the lower band. A stop-loss is placed above the 20-period SMA, and a target is set at the next Fibonacci level or support. This approach aligns well with the current chart, where price remains near the lower band and is below the 20-period SMA. A backtest over the last 30 days could help assess the profitability of this setup, especially in a low-volatility to high-volatility transition.
