The indicator showed signs of divergence between price and momentum during the 09:30–10:45 ET time frame, suggesting the bear trend could continue.

Backtest Hypothesis

Given the bearish trend and RSI divergence, a potential backtest strategy could involve a short entry at the close of the 19:30–19:45 ET candle (497,576) with a stop-loss above the 50-period 15-minute moving average (498,300). A target could be set at the 61.8% Fibonacci level (497,100) and extended to the next support at 496,000. The 19:30–19:45 ET candle also formed a bearish engulfing pattern, adding technical confirmation for a short setup. This strategy would rely on the continued bearish bias and a failure to retest and break above the 50-period MA in the next 24 hours.
