Moving Averages and Volatility
On the 5-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages showed a strong downward trend after the 0.004051 peak. The 20SMA crossed below the 50SMA, forming a bearish crossover. Price also touched the lower Bollinger Band multiple times, indicating elevated volatility in the latter half of the 24-hour window.

Momentum and Indicators
MACD turned negative in the early morning hours, showing a bearish divergence with price action that failed to hold above 0.004055. RSI dipped into oversold territory near 30 by 05:15 ET, suggesting a possible short-term bounce may occur. However, without a clear reversal candlestick, this may not confirm a trend reversal.
Volume and Turnover
Volume spiked to 11.6 million units during the 2026-01-15 03:30 ET candle, coinciding with a sharp drop to 0.003936. Turnover increased in tandem, with $4,583.94 transacted during that 15-minute window. Volume and price action were aligned, confirming the bearish momentum.
Fibonacci Retracements
The decline from 0.004083 to 0.003936 found a temporary floor at 0.003995, which aligns with the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level. This suggests that if the pair recovers, the 61.8% level at 0.004033 may act as a near-term ceiling.
BANANAS31USDC may attempt a short-term rebound from the 0.003995–0.004005 support zone but faces near-term resistance at 0.004035. Investors should watch for a strong bullish reversal candle and confirmation from RSI or MACD before considering a reversal trade. The risk of further consolidation below 0.004005 remains.
