Structure & Formations

Price action displayed a series of bearish formations, including a bearish engulfing pattern near the 103,200 level early in the session, followed by a doji at 102,500, signaling indecision. A key support zone at 102,000 was tested twice, with the most recent attempt showing a potential reversal as price closed near the session high within the candle. The session low at 101,900 marked a strong level of bearish pressure but failed to break decisively below this level.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages were in a bearish crossover for most of the session, reinforcing the downtrend. On the daily chart, the 50-period MA was above the 100- and 200-period MAs, suggesting a mixed near-term bias with longer-term bullish underpinnings still intact.

MACD & RSI

The MACD remained below the signal line for the majority of the session, indicating bearish momentum, though a slight positive crossover occurred near the close. RSI drifted lower throughout most of the session, reaching oversold territory below 30 near the close, suggesting a potential short-term rebound may be due, though bearish sentiment remains strong.

Bollinger Bands

Bollinger Bands expanded in the early part of the session, reflecting high volatility and significant price swings, particularly around the 103,200 level. As the session progressed, volatility began to contract, with price consolidating near the mid-band toward the close. This suggests that the market may be entering a period of range-bound trading ahead of a potential breakout or breakdown.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked early in the session during the move toward the high, but remained relatively low during the consolidation phase toward the close. Notional turnover followed a similar pattern, with a bearish divergence emerging as price continued lower without a significant increase in volume. This suggests that buying interest may be waning, increasing the likelihood of further downward movement in the near term.

Fibonacci Retracements

Fibonacci levels derived from the key 15-minute swing high of 103,215.43 and the low of 101,900.0 showed price consolidating near the 61.8% retracement level at 102,440.0, indicating a potential area of interest for short-term traders. On the daily chart, the 38.2% retracement level at 102,900.0 acted as a key resistance point during the mid-session consolidation phase.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtesting strategy described involves identifying bearish engulfing patterns on the 15-minute chart, particularly when they occur above key resistance levels and coincide with a MACD crossover below the signal line. Given the bearish engulfing pattern seen near the 103,200 level, combined with a bearish MACD and RSI in overbought territory, a short entry could have been triggered. A stop-loss would have been placed above the engulfing pattern’s high, with a target near the 102,000 support level. If this pattern is consistent in the data, it could offer a repeatable short-term bearish signal.
