ChainGPT/Tether (CGPTUSDT) opened at $0.0977 on 2025-09-18 12:00 ET and closed at $0.0912 on 2025-09-19 12:00 ET, hitting a high of $0.0986 and a low of $0.0909. Total 24-hour trading volume reached 9,539,844.2 units, with a notional turnover of approximately $896,583.5. The pair experienced a significant breakdown in the afternoon, with increased volatility and bearish momentum.
The candlestick structure displayed multiple bearish signals, particularly during the 15:00–16:00 ET window, where a large bearish engulfing pattern confirmed the breakdown from $0.0924 to $0.0909. A notable doji appeared at $0.0960, suggesting indecision before the sharp decline. Key support levels were tested at $0.0931, $0.0919, and $0.0909, while resistance appeared at $0.0926, $0.0935, and $0.0943.
On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages both moved lower, confirming the bearish trend. The price remained well below both, reinforcing a downtrend. On the daily chart, the 50, 100, and 200-period MAs showed a bearish alignment, with the 50 MA below the 100 and 200 MAs, further supporting the continuation of the downward bias.
The MACD turned bearish in the morning session, with the line crossing below the signal line and forming a bearish histogram. RSI reached overbought territory near $0.0986 but quickly corrected into oversold territory by 16:00 ET, signaling a potential short-term reversal. The divergence between RSI and price in the final 2 hours of the session suggests a possible bounce.
Volatility expanded significantly after 09:00 ET, with the Bollinger Band width increasing by 18%. By 15:00 ET, price had broken below the lower band at $0.0909–$0.0910, indicating a high-probability short-term continuation of the downtrend. Price remained within the bands for most of the session until the final 2 hours, when it pushed below the floor, suggesting exhaustion of bullish sentiment.
Volume spiked above average during the breakdown from $0.0924 to $0.0909, with a peak of 1,034,821.5 units at 15:15 ET. Turnover during this period was $93,764.3, nearly four times the previous hour’s $23,020.1. A divergence between declining price and rising volume confirmed the bearish move. The final hour of the session saw volume decline, suggesting a potential exhaustion in the selling pressure.
Fibonacci levels applied to the recent swing from $0.0909 to $0.0943 highlighted potential support at 38.2% ($0.0923) and 61.8% ($0.0926). Price found a brief bounce at the 61.8% level before resuming the decline, suggesting these levels may provide a temporary floor in the near term. Daily-level Fibonacci retracements from the recent high of $0.0986 indicate a potential retest of $0.0953 and $0.0964.
A potential backtest strategy could focus on a bearish breakout system using Bollinger Bands and volume confirmation. For example, entering a short position on a close below the lower Bollinger Band, with a stop loss above the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement and a target at the 61.8% level. Volume spikes above average during the breakdown would act as confirmation of the trade. This approach aligns with the observed bearish engulfing patterns and divergence in the MACD and RSI.
