Structure & Formations
JOE/Bitcoin’s 15-minute candlestick activity displayed a mix of consolidation and intermittent breakout attempts, particularly between 21:00 and 22:30 ET. A notable
bullish engulfing pattern emerged at 1.04e-06, suggesting potential reversal from a prior bearish trend. A key resistance appears to be forming near 1.07e-06, with price bouncing off this level multiple times over the last 6 hours. A strong support level was observed near 1.02e-06, with two 15-minute candles hitting this floor without breaking it.
Moving Averages and Momentum
On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period SMAs are converging, with the price currently holding above both. On the daily chart, the 50-period SMA is above the 100-period SMA, indicating a mildly bullish bias. The
MACD crossed above zero in the early hours, suggesting increased buying pressure, although it remains in a neutral to bullish range. The
RSI is currently at 52, indicating neither overbought nor oversold conditions.
Bollinger Bands and Volatility
The price has spent most of the day within the Bollinger Bands, with volatility showing a moderate contraction. The most recent 15-minute candle closed near the upper band, suggesting a potential short-term overbought condition. However, the bands remain relatively narrow, indicating a possible consolidation phase. A significant expansion in volatility would likely signal a breakout in either direction.
Volume and Turnover
Volume activity was uneven, with a sharp increase between 21:30 and 22:30 ET, followed by a rapid decline. This suggests a potential accumulation or distribution event. Turnover peaked during the same period, reinforcing the volume spike. Notably, there was a divergence between price and volume during the 00:00–02:00 ET window, with volume declining while price continued to consolidate. This may signal weakening conviction in the current trend.
Fibonacci Retracements
Applying Fibonacci retracements to the recent 15-minute swing (1.02e-06 to 1.07e-06), the 38.2% level at 1.047e-06 and 61.8% level at 1.055e-06 appear to be key areas of interest. The current price is near the 38.2% retracement, suggesting a possible pause in the upward momentum. For the daily chart, the 38.2% level at 1.03e-06 is acting as a strong support zone.
Backtest Hypothesis
Based on the observed patterns and price behavior, the proposed backtesting strategy would benefit from using the
Bullish Engulfing pattern at
mechanically defined resistance levels, such as the most recent swing high on the 15-minute chart. Resistance could be defined as the highest high over the last 20 bars (3.5 hours). For
execution, entering at the next candle’s open and holding for one bar would align well with the current market structure. Given the low divergence and strong volume confirmation during the 21:30–22:30 ET window, this setup could yield consistent short-term trades if the pattern continues to appear in high-probability zones. Stop-loss placement at the 1.04e-06 support level and a take-profit target at the next Fibonacci level (1.05e-06) may improve risk/reward balance.
