Structure & Formations

The price action displayed a bearish reversal pattern on the 15-minute chart, with a key breakdown below the 0.0731 level during the 21:15–21:30 ET period. A strong bearish engulfing pattern formed at the top of the 0.0777–0.0731 swing before the rapid decline. A potential support zone developed around 0.061–0.063, where price found a temporary floor. A doji formed near 0.0633 in the 08:45–09:00 ET window, signaling indecision among traders.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the price closed below the 20SMA and 50SMA, reinforcing the bearish bias. The 50SMA at ~0.0652 and 100SMA at ~0.0673 serve as resistance levels on the daily chart. The 200SMA, at ~0.069, is a key long-term resistance. Price remains below all major moving averages, suggesting continued bearish momentum could persist unless a strong reversal occurs.

MACD & RSI

The 15-minute MACD turned negative in the morning, confirming the bearish move. The MACD line crossed below the signal line at ~0.0675, signaling further downward potential. RSI hit overbought territory at ~72 during the midday ET bounce but rapidly declined to ~30 by 05:30 ET, signaling oversold conditions. However, price failed to hold above 0.0645 after the bounce, indicating weak conviction in the recovery.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility expanded significantly after 04:45 ET, with price moving from the upper band at 0.065 to near the lower band at 0.061. The contraction in the 18:30–21:00 ET window preceded the breakout, hinting at potential volatility. Price is currently near the lower band, with the middle band at ~0.0635 offering potential support if the rebound continues.

Volume & Turnover

Volume surged during the 05:15–05:30 ET window as price rose from 0.065 to 0.0716, confirming the strength of the early morning rally. However, price failed to hold above 0.067 after 06:15 ET despite continued volume, signaling a divergence. The highest single 15-minute turnover occurred during the 05:15–05:30 ET window at ~$720k. The recent decline from 0.0736 to 0.061 came with above-average volume, suggesting strong bearish conviction.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci to the recent 0.061–0.0736 swing, key levels include 0.065 (38.2%) and 0.063 (61.8%). The price stalled at 0.065 on two occasions before breaking down further, suggesting that the 61.8% level is now in play as a potential support. On the daily chart, the 0.061–0.0783 swing shows 0.066 (38.2%) as a potential resistance and 0.062 (61.8%) as a possible support for the near term.

Backtest Hypothesis

Given the bearish momentum and overbought-oversold RSI behavior, a short-term mean-reversion strategy may have been viable during the 05:15–06:15 ET period. A potential entry could have been made at the 0.069 RSI oversold level, with a stop-loss just below 0.0645 and a target near the 0.0663 Fibonacci level. This approach would align with the observed pattern of false breakouts and divergence in the RSI, which historically may suggest a retest of key levels before continuing the trend. The high volume and strong MACD signal during the rally also support the hypothesis of a short-term bounce within a broader bearish context.
