Structure & Formations

The 15-minute OHLCV data shows a bearish trend forming after an initial attempt to break above 0.00206. A key resistance cluster emerged near 0.00206–0.00208, which failed to hold. A bearish engulfing pattern appeared around 2025-09-17 03:00–03:15 ET, with a long bearish candle confirming the breakdown. A series of bearish hammers formed later, suggesting distribution pressure. The key support level is now forming around 0.002015–0.002019, which has held three times in the last 24 hours.

Moving Averages

The 20- and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart are currently bearish, with the price well below both. On the daily chart, the 50, 100, and 200-period EMAs are aligned in a downtrend, suggesting a broader bearish bias. A potential bounce from the 50-period MA at 0.002035 could trigger short-term corrections, but a retest of the 100-period MA at 0.002055 is unlikely without renewed buying pressure.

MACD & RSI

MACD turned bearish with a crossover below zero around 2025-09-17 01:30 ET and has remained negative since. RSI peaked at 61.8 during the 0.002075–0.002066 consolidation phase before dropping to 36.5 by 12:00 ET. This suggests moderate oversold conditions but not yet extreme. A close above 50 on RSI would signal short-term bullish potential, while a drop below 30 would reinforce bearish momentum.

Bollinger Bands

Bollinger Bands experienced a contraction between 2025-09-17 05:00 and 07:00 ET, followed by a significant expansion as price broke down from 0.002042 to 0.002019. The 20-period standard deviation was at its highest at 0.000009, indicating heightened volatility. Price is now sitting near the lower Bollinger Band at 0.002015, suggesting potential for a mean-reverting bounce or further breakdown if support is pierced.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked at 136 million during the 03:00–03:15 ET candle, coinciding with the breakdown from 0.002072 to 0.002060. However, volume has since declined to an average of 10–20 million per candle, indicating reduced conviction in the bearish trend. Notional turnover followed a similar pattern, peaking at $292,000 during the 03:00–03:15 ET candle and declining to below $40,000 in the last hour. The price-volume divergence suggests the market is in a period of consolidation.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci retracement levels to the 0.002089–0.002014 swing, 61.8% and 50% levels align with the current price area (0.002019) and previous support (0.002034), respectively. A break below 0.002014 would test the 38.2% level at 0.002008. On the daily chart, the 200-day Fibonacci at 0.002005 is a key psychological level to watch in the next 48 hours.

Backtest Hypothesis

A backtesting strategy based on breakout and reversal signals from Bollinger Bands and RSI could provide insights. For instance, entering a short position on a close below the lower Bollinger Band combined with RSI below 30 may offer high-probability bearish trades. A stop-loss above the 50-period moving average and a target at the next Fibonacci level (38.2%) could be used. Conversely, a long entry may be considered on a close above the upper Bollinger Band with RSI above 50, as seen earlier in the 0.00206–0.00208 consolidation phase.
