Structure & Formations

Price action exhibited a bearish consolidation pattern between 2.72e-06 and 2.75e-06, with bearish engulfing and doji patterns appearing at key turning points. A critical support level appears to form at 2.71e-06, where price found a floor early on 2025-11-13 and later bounced after a brief test. Resistance remains intact at 2.75e-06, where the pair failed to break above in the final hours.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period MA crossed below the 50-period MA, suggesting a short-term bearish bias. On the daily chart, the 50-period MA is slightly above the 200-period MA, indicating a flattening trend, with price lingering near the 100-period MA in the final hours, suggesting indecision ahead.

MACD & RSI

MACD showed a bearish crossover in early morning, followed by a gradual return to neutral territory, with the histogram contracting. RSI hovered around the 50 level for most of the day, indicating a lack of clear momentum. A brief oversold condition occurred at 2.71e-06 but failed to spark a sustained rebound.

Bollinger Bands

Price spent the majority of the 24-hour window within the Bollinger Bands, with a brief contraction observed before the 2.71e-06 low. After the low, price expanded into the upper band, reaching 2.75e-06 in the final hours. The narrow consolidation suggests limited volatility, but recent price expansion may hint at a potential breakout attempt.

Volume & Turnover

Volume was mostly muted throughout the session, with spikes observed in the final 4.5 hours, particularly between 20:45 and 05:45 ET. Despite the increased volume, price lacked directional conviction, with mixed highs and lows. Turnover spiked in the final 30 minutes, but failed to confirm a strong reversal pattern.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci to the recent swing from 2.69e-06 to 2.75e-06, 2.73e-06 aligns with the 61.8% retracement level. This level may serve as a short-term equilibrium zone, with a potential test of the 50% retracement (~2.72e-06) ahead if bears reassert control.

Backtest Hypothesis

A backtest of the Bearish Engulfing Short strategy over 2022–2025 yielded a total return of -58.4% and an annualized return of -20.4%. The strategy suffered from a maximum drawdown of -74.2% and a negative Sharpe ratio (-0.39). While bearish engulfing patterns appeared at key turning points, they lacked a consistent edge. Without additional filters like volume confirmation or trend alignment, the signal alone proved unreliable. The recent 15-minute data shows bearish engulfing and doji patterns, but traders should consider these in the broader context of volume, trend, and volatility before initiating short positions.
