Structure & Formations

Price action on the 15-minute chart showed multiple bearish patterns, including a strong bearish engulfing pattern around 22:15 ET (224500) and a hanging man pattern at the 00:00 ET (000000) mark. Key support levels include the 15-minute low of $36.19 and the 1-hour low of $37.0, with resistance forming at $41.0–$42.0. Fibonacci retracements from the recent high of $48.44 to the low of $36.19 show 61.8% at $42.0 and 38.2% at $39.2.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages are bearish, with price below both. On the daily chart, the 50/100/200 SMA lines are aligned lower, reinforcing the bearish trend. The 50-day MA sits around $43.0, above the current price, suggesting further downside risk.

MACD & RSI

MACD lines show bearish divergence with price, particularly during the recovery attempts from $37.0. RSI hit an oversold level below 30 during the late-night session, suggesting a potential bounce. However, bearish momentum remains strong, with RSI failing to close above 40 in the last 6 hours.

Bollinger Bands

Bollinger Bands indicate wide volatility with the 20-period band spanning from $41.0 to $37.0. Price is currently near the lower band, indicating potential for a reversion or consolidation phase. A break above the 20-period band would signal a short-term reversal.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked during the 22:00 ET to 00:15 ET session, particularly around $45.0 and $42.0 levels, suggesting increased selling pressure. Notional turnover peaked at $383,640 USD during the 22:45 ET (224500) candlestick. Divergences between price and volume are minimal, indicating consistent bearish sentiment.

Fibonacci Retracements

From the 15-minute swing high at $48.44 to the low at $36.19, Fibonacci levels at 61.8% ($42.0) and 38.2% ($39.2) appear to act as key psychological and potential turning points. A failure to break above $42.0 could lead to further tests of support near $37.0.

Backtest Hypothesis

A potential backtesting strategy could involve entering long positions on bearish engulfing patterns, assuming a reversal bias. Given the current setup, a bearish engulfing at $42.85 (17:00 ET) and $44.01 (19:45 ET) could trigger buy signals for long positions, followed by a target to sell at the next Fibonacci support level of $39.2. Alternatively, a short strategy could target the next support level at $37.0 with a stop just above $40.0. For clarity, please confirm whether you intend to enter long or short positions on these patterns.
