Jito/Tether (JTOUSDT) opened at $0.71 on 2025-11-12 at 12:00 ET and surged to a 24-hour high of $0.77 before consolidating near $0.746 at 12:00 ET today. Total volume for the 24-hour period was ~8.8 million JTO, with notional turnover reaching approximately $6.5 million.

The price action showed a strong bullish impulse driven by late-night buying pressure, especially between 03:00 and 05:00 ET, where the pair climbed from $0.74 to $0.77. A key resistance level at $0.75–$0.76 was cleared decisively, with a bearish engulfing candle forming at $0.752–$0.757 at 09:15 ET, hinting at near-term profit-taking or consolidation. A doji at $0.746 at 08:00 ET suggests indecision after the sharp move higher.

The 20-period EMA (15-min) crossed above the 50-period EMA, reinforcing the bullish bias, while the 50-period daily EMA showed the pair is currently above its mid-term trend. MACD showed positive divergence, with the histogram expanding as price climbed, suggesting strong momentum. RSI peaked near 80, indicating overbought conditions and a potential pullback risk. Bollinger Bands expanded as volatility increased, with price testing the upper band multiple times.

A consolidation pattern emerged after the initial rally, with price trading in a range between $0.735 and $0.755 during the morning hours. Notable support levels include $0.73 (61.8% Fib of the overnight rally) and $0.72 (psychological and 38.2% Fib level). Volume remained elevated during the rally but dipped as the pair consolidated, indicating potential exhaustion of momentum.

Backtest Hypothesis
To evaluate the potential effectiveness of an RSI-based strategy for JTOUSDT, a backtest could use a 14-period RSI with an oversold threshold of 30 and an overbought sell level at 70. Entries would occur at close when RSI < 30 and exits at close when RSI > 70. The strategy could be enhanced with a 5% stop-loss and a 10% take-profit to manage risk and capture directional moves.
