24-Hour Price and Volume Snapshot
At 12:00 ET on January 1, 2026, Bittensor/Bitcoin (TAOBTC) opened at 0.002517, reached a high of 0.002566, and a low of 0.002490, closing at 0.002557. Total volume across the 24-hour window was 1,157.66 BTC, with notional turnover of 2.968 BTC.
Structure and Patterns
The pair formed a bullish engulfing pattern after hitting the 0.002490 support level, followed by a narrow-range consolidation between 0.002500–0.002515. A morning breakout above 0.002520 showed strength, confirmed by a hammer-like candle at 07:00 ET. However, a failed attempt to break 0.002555 during the afternoon saw a sharp volume spike without a corresponding price response, hinting at potential indecision.
Momentum and Volatility
Relative Strength Index (RSI) dipped into oversold territory during the overnight dip, then gradually climbed into positive momentum as buyers entered near 0.002500. MACD showed a positive crossover late in the morning, aligning with the price rebound. Bollinger Bands expanded in the afternoon, suggesting heightened volatility. Price remained within the upper band during the final hours, indicating potential follow-through buying.
Volume and Turnover
Volume activity spiked twice: once around 17:00 ET on December 31 and again after 17:00 ET on January 1. However, the afternoon’s large volume failed to push price past the 0.002555 level, raising questions about the strength of the move. Turnover confirmed the morning rally, with increased notional value exchanged between 09:00–11:00 ET.
Fibonacci and Moving Averages
Key Fibonacci levels from the 0.002490–0.002566 swing saw price consolidate near the 61.8% retracement at 0.002534 before breaking higher. A 20-period 5-minute moving average crossed above the 50-period line during the late morning, confirming a short-term bullish bias.
Price appears to be testing a new equilibrium between 0.002530 and 0.002560. A close above 0.002560 could signal a shift in control, but a retest of the 0.002530 level is likely. Investors should remain cautious of potential profit-taking near resistance levels.
