Over the 24-hour period, XTZUSDT displayed a choppy, range-bound price structure, with the market forming a consolidation pattern between key support at 0.6680 and resistance at 0.6833. Notable candlestick formations included a bullish engulfing pattern at 0.6793 and a doji near 0.6822, indicating indecision at the upper boundary of the range. The price found temporary support at 0.6742 and 0.6703, both of which coincided with Fibonacci retracement levels of 61.8% and 38.2%, respectively, from the prior swing high.

The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart crossed twice during the session, suggesting short-term mean reversion tendencies. Daily moving averages (50, 100, and 200-period) remained relatively flat, indicating no strong directional bias from longer-term participants. The MACD line crossed into positive territory briefly during the afternoon, but the histogram showed a rapid contraction, indicating weakening momentum. The RSI reached overbought territory at 0.6822 but failed to break through, reinforcing resistance.

Bollinger Bands reflected moderate volatility, with a slight expansion occurring during the bullish push near 0.6822 and a contraction in the early morning hours. Price spent most of the day near the middle band, suggesting a continuation of the trading range. Notional turnover spiked during the morning and late-night hours but did not align with sustained price movement, indicating possible distribution at key levels. Volume confirmed the morning rally but diverged during the late-night pullback, suggesting caution for further downward moves.

The backtesting strategy leverages a mean-reversion framework, triggering longs when price dips to the 38.2% Fibonacci level with an RSI below 30 and volume above the 15-minute average. Shorts are initiated when price reaches the 61.8% Fibonacci level and RSI exceeds 70. Stops are placed at the nearest support/resistance level, and targets are based on the most recent swing. The strategy appears well-suited for the current range-bound environment, especially during consolidation near 0.6703 and 0.6822.
