The Xai/Tether (XAIUSDT) pair opened at 0.0419 on 2025-10-02 at 12:00 ET and surged to a high of 0.0443 before closing at 0.0425 at 12:00 ET the following day. Total volume across the 24-hour window reached 69.65M, with a notional turnover of approximately $3.05M. The pair displayed a bullish structure, marked by a strong breakout and consolidation phase during the session.

The price action featured a key support level at 0.0426, which was tested multiple times and successfully held during the session’s consolidation. Notably, a bullish engulfing pattern emerged around 18:30 ET, as the price moved from 0.0433 to 0.0437 in a single candle, indicating strong buying pressure. A doji formed near 0.0435 at 23:30 ET, signaling a potential reversal after the mid-session high.

The 15-minute chart showed the 20-period and 50-period moving averages converging, with the price above both, indicating a bullish bias. The 50-period moving average acted as a dynamic support during the early consolidation phase. On the daily chart, the 200-period moving average remained well below the current price level, supporting the idea of a recent upswing.

The RSI climbed into overbought territory during the late trading session, peaking near 65–70, though it did not reach extreme levels. This suggests a strong but not extreme bullish momentum. The MACD crossed above its signal line and maintained a positive histogram, reinforcing the upward bias. Bollinger Bands showed a moderate expansion as the price moved toward the upper band, then retracted toward the midline during the night, indicating a potential exhaustion of the upward trend.

Volatility spiked during the mid-session rally, with volume exceeding 1.64M and 1.54M in two consecutive candles at 18:45 ET and 00:30 ET, respectively. The price remained above the 20-period moving average for much of the session, aligning with the higher volume periods. There was a slight divergence between price and turnover during the late consolidation phase, as volume declined while the price remained relatively stable.

Fibonacci retracements drawn from the key swing high of 0.0443 to the low of 0.0419 identified 0.0434 (61.8%) as a critical retracement level that the price held and even tested twice. A break below 0.0426 (38.2%) may expose the next level at 0.0422 and could trigger a deeper correction toward the session low of 0.0419. The consolidation near the 0.0426 level suggests a potential reversal or continuation scenario for the next 24 hours, depending on the strength of the next move.

Backtest Hypothesis
The backtest strategy under consideration involves identifying key Fibonacci retracement levels and using them as dynamic entry triggers when the price retests these levels in conjunction with bullish candlestick patterns. The strategy assumes that a strong retest of the 0.0426 level—confirmed by a bullish engulfing or hammer pattern—could serve as an early signal for a continuation of the upward trend. Additionally, if the 0.0434 level holds as a dynamic support and is confirmed by volume spikes and a bullish MACD crossover, this could trigger a long entry with a target at the previous high of 0.0437. A stop-loss would be placed below 0.0425 to limit downside risk.
