Beefy/Tether (BIFIUSDT) opened at 149.4 on 2026-01-05 12:00 ET and traded as high as 150.8 before closing at 148.1 on 2026-01-06 12:00 ET, with a low of 147.0. Total volume reached 1,638.11 and turnover hit $242,999.51 over the 24-hour period.
Structure & Formations
Price action revealed a bearish bias through key support levels at 148.5 and 147.0, both of which were tested and briefly broken. A bearish engulfing candle at 05:45 ET confirmed downward momentum, and a doji at 06:00 ET indicated indecision after the sharp drop.

Moving Averages
On the 5-minute chart, the 20-period MA crossed below the 50-period MA, reinforcing the bearish bias. On the daily chart, the 50-period MA is below the 100-period MA, and the price is trading beneath the 200-period MA, suggesting a prolonged bearish trend.
Momentum Indicators
The RSI bottomed near 29 during the drop to 147.0, suggesting oversold territory. However, the lack of a strong rebound and muted volume cast doubt on a reversal. The MACD moved into negative territory, confirming bearish momentum with a widening histogram.
Bollinger Bands
Volatility increased significantly as price approached the lower Bollinger Band at 147.0, reaching the 2σ level. The contraction observed earlier in the session failed to precede a reversal, and price remained within the bands until the final leg down.
Volume & Turnover
The largest volume spike occurred at 04:30 ET, coinciding with a 1.3% drop to 148.0. Despite the move, turnover did not confirm the bearish bias, with volume tapering off as price approached the 147.0 level. A divergence between price and volume during the rebound suggests weak conviction in buyers.
Fibonacci Retracements
On the 5-minute chart, price tested the 61.8% retracement level at 148.6 before continuing lower. On the daily timeframe, the 38.2% level at 149.2 failed to hold, confirming the bearish trend.
In the coming 24 hours, price may test the 147.0 level for a potential bounce or breakdown. Traders should remain cautious about false bounces and consider the possibility of a continuation of the bearish trend.
