Structure & Formations

The past 24 hours showed multiple attempts to break out of a defined range, with key resistance forming around the 403,000.0–403,500.0 level and support near 399,000.0. Notably, a bearish engulfing pattern emerged in the hour preceding the close, as the price opened at 400,061.0 and closed at 400,061.0 after a high of 400,107.0. This pattern, combined with a lack of follow-through in volume, may indicate a short-term reversal. Additionally, a long-legged doji was observed near 403,458.0, suggesting indecision at the session high.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages are converging around the 400,000.0 level, forming a potential support zone. Price has been fluctuating between these two levels, indicating a lack of strong directional bias. On a larger scale, daily moving averages (50, 100, 200) suggest a sideways trend with no clear dominance from any one time frame. The 200-day MA, while not directly influencing the 15-minute chart, provides a long-term reference point of ~402,000.0.

MACD & RSI

The MACD remained in a narrow range around the zero line, reflecting low momentum and no clear bullish or bearish bias. The histogram showed alternating positive and negative bars with no consistent divergence, suggesting mixed signals. RSI readings stayed within the 45–55 range, reinforcing the neutral tone of the market. No overbought or oversold signals emerged, indicating that the market has been range-bound without any extreme positions.

Bollinger Bands

Price action remained within the Bollinger Band envelope for most of the 24-hour window, with volatility showing a slight contraction after the session high. This suggests traders may be waiting for a catalyst before committing to a trade. The most recent close of 400,061.0 is slightly above the 20-period moving average and near the lower band, indicating a potential support area that could see buying interest.

Volume & Turnover

Volume remained relatively low throughout, with the largest single candle seeing 0.14832 BTC traded at 18:45 ET. Notional turnover followed a similar pattern, with no major spikes in either metric. The volume during the bearish engulfing pattern was only 0.00803 BTC, which is below average, suggesting a weak rejection of higher prices. Price and turnover were largely aligned, with no significant divergences noted.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci levels to the recent high of 403,458.0 and low of 399,001.0, the 38.2% retracement level is at 401,724.0 and the 61.8% at 400,275.0. These levels have seen price testing multiple times, with a clear rejection at the 403,458.0 high. The 400,275.0 level is currently in play and could see a bounce or breakdown. A breakdown would aim for the next support at ~399,000.0, while a rebound could test the 401,724.0 level again.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtest strategy described involves a mean-reversion approach using 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart. When the price crosses below the 20-period MA from above, a short signal is triggered, with a target at the 61.8% Fibonacci level. Stop-loss is placed just above the 50-period MA. Given the recent bearish engulfing pattern and the current positioning of the 20-period MA as support, this strategy may have shown profitability in this market environment. The low volatility and range-bound conditions are favorable for such an approach, as large unexpected moves are less likely.
