Structure & Formations

Price action remained flat for the majority of the session, with no significant candlestick patterns emerging. A minor bullish impulse occurred at 22:00 ET when MAVBTC closed above $2.8e-07, but it failed to follow through on subsequent candles. This suggests a lack of conviction among traders in either direction. No distinct support or resistance levels were tested due to the range-bound nature of the market.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20- and 50-period moving averages were aligned closely near $2.85e-07, indicating a sideways trend. The 50-period line remained slightly above the 20-period, but the difference is negligible. On the daily chart, the 50, 100, and 200-period lines were nearly overlapping near $2.85e-07, reinforcing the sideways bias and suggesting no strong momentum either up or down.

MACD & RSI

The MACD indicator showed negligible divergence, with both the line and signal line hovering near the zero line, suggesting no clear trend. The RSI remained in the 50–55 range for most of the day, indicating neutral momentum. There were no overbought or oversold signals, reinforcing the idea that MAVBTC is in a consolidation phase.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility was extremely low, with Bollinger Bands tightening significantly. Price action remained within a narrow band, with the exception of the 22:00 ET candle, which briefly touched the upper band. This contraction in volatility may precede a breakout or breakdown, but without increased volume, the likelihood of a sustained move appears low.

Volume & Turnover

Volume was nearly absent during most of the session, with several 15-minute intervals recording zero volume. This low liquidity environment makes large price swings unlikely unless significant news or macroeconomic factors intervene. The only notable volume spikes occurred at 22:00 ET and 03:00 ET, coinciding with minor price movements but without follow-through.

Fibonacci Retracements

Fibonacci levels for the recent 15-minute swing were inconclusive due to minimal movement. For the daily chart, the 38.2% and 61.8% levels were not tested, as the price remained within a narrow range. The lack of clear swing highs and lows makes the use of Fibonacci tools less effective in this context.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtest strategy described here leverages the concept of resistance-level events — defined as Bitcoin closing above the 20-day Bollinger Band upper band. This approach aligns with the Bollinger Band observations made above, where MAVBTC barely touched the upper band during the session. While the current session did not qualify as a resistance-level event, the backtest highlights that such events historically provide short-term bullish momentum, with an average excess return of +0.64% on the first day. This momentum appears to extend for approximately 9 days before mean reversion sets in. If MAVBTC were to see a genuine breakout above a key resistance level, the strategy suggests that short-term momentum trades with a 5–9 day horizon could be most effective.
