Structure & Formations
CELOUSDT formed a bullish engulfing pattern around 0.335–0.340, confirming a breakout after a consolidation phase. The price then tested and cleared the 0.348–0.350 resistance cluster, now appearing to act as a new support. A key support appears at 0.3350–0.3375, with 0.3243 serving as a critical level if the rally falters.
Moving Averages
On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages are both trending upward, aligning with the bullish bias. The 50-period MA currently sits just below the price, indicating ongoing strength. On the daily chart, CELOUSDT is trading above the 50, 100, and 200-period MAs, reinforcing the broader uptrend.
MACD & RSI
MACD showed a strong positive crossover in early trading, with the histogram expanding through much of the session. RSI climbed to over 75, suggesting overbought conditions and the potential for a near-term pullback. However, the bullish divergence between price and RSI remains weak, indicating strong follow-through demand may continue.
Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands widened significantly as CELOUSDT moved higher, reflecting increased volatility. The price spent most of the session above the midline and occasionally brushed the upper band, suggesting elevated bullish momentum but also highlighting overbought risks.
Volume & Turnover
Volume surged during the morning and midday hours, peaking at $2.7M during the 18:45–19:00 ET session. Notional turnover followed suit, though it declined slightly at the peak price level, hinting at possible profit-taking. The positive price/volume correlation suggests broad-based buying support.
Fibonacci Retracements
Key Fibonacci levels from the 0.3243–0.3661 move are at 0.3453 (38.2%) and 0.3557 (61.8%). The 0.3453 level appears to have acted as a minor resistance-turned-support. A breakdown below 0.3375 would expose the 0.3273–0.3290 retracement zone.
Celo may extend the rally if it breaks above 0.3664, with the next target at 0.3700. However, traders should remain cautious as overbought conditions and declining turnover at the high could trigger a retracement in the near term.
