BNB/Yen (BNBJPY) opened at $145,730 on 2025-11-07 at 12:00 ET and rose to a 24-hour high of $154,015 by 2:15 AM ET. The pair then consolidated and closed at $151,995 by 12:00 ET on 2025-11-08. Total volume for the 24-hour period was 735.654 units, with a notional turnover of approximately ¥112.7 million.

The price action shows a strong bullish bias throughout the session, characterized by a series of higher highs and higher lows. The candlestick structure suggests aggressive buying, particularly between 17:00 ET and 2:15 AM ET, where multiple bullish engulfing patterns confirmed the upward momentum. However, the long upper shadows and declining volume in the final hours indicate potential profit-taking or indecision.

From a technical perspective, the 15-minute 20-period EMA and 50-period EMA crossed above key support levels during the Asian session, reinforcing the bullish bias. The 50-period EMA now resides around $150,000, acting as a dynamic support. Bollinger Bands saw a notable contraction in the final hours of the session, suggesting a potential reversal or continuation depending on tomorrow’s opening. The RSI-14 reached overbought territory (above 70) in the early hours, indicating a possible near-term pullback.

Fibonacci retracement levels drawn from the $145,350 to $154,015 swing show $152,400 as a key 61.8% retracement level where the price paused before declining. This level may continue to act as a magnet for short-term traders. Additionally, a 38.2% retracement at $153,200 coincided with a high-volume bar, which may serve as a pivot point for the next 24 hours.

Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and RSI suggest mixed signals. While MACD remained above zero, confirming the bullish trend, the RSI-14’s divergence from price in the final hour (rising price with falling RSI) warns of a potential short-term correction. Volume and turnover increased significantly during the Asian and US sessions but declined toward the close, indicating waning momentum. If the price breaks below $151,000 without a corresponding volume spike, this could signal a reversal.

Backtest Hypothesis: Given the observed overbought RSI-14 during the session and the strong price action, a short-term event-based backtesting strategy could be applied. Using the BNBUSD.UDC (BNB quoted in USD) as a proxy, and assuming a daily RSI-14 > 70 (overbought) as the entry signal, one could model a strategy where the trade is entered at the next session’s open and held for 24 hours. This approach would seek to capture mean-reversion in overextended markets. The test period from 2022-01-01 to 2025-11-08 will reveal whether overbought conditions reliably result in short-term corrections. For BNB/Yen, this strategy would be more volatile due to the Yen’s liquidity characteristics and macroeconomic influences.
