Moving Averages
On the 5-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages crossed below the price, forming a death cross. Daily moving averages were not available but would likely be bearish if extended into the prior days' trend.
MACD & RSI
The MACD turned bearish after crossing below the signal line, with a narrowing histogram indicating fading bullish momentum. RSI dropped from overbought territory near 70 to oversold levels near 30, signaling a strong bearish impulse.
Bollinger Bands
Volatility expanded in the final 12 hours as price moved toward the lower Bollinger band, breaking the 0.1440 level with volume surges. A contraction in band width had been observed earlier in the session, suggesting a breakout was expected—now confirmed to the downside.
Volume & Turnover
Volume spiked at the breakdown of 0.1440, confirming the bearish sentiment. Turnover was aligned with the price action, showing no significant divergence. The final 5-minute bar at 12:00 ET showed a bearish close near the lower end of the candle, suggesting continuation bias.
Fibonacci Retracements
The 0.1440 level corresponded to the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the prior 5-minute rally, and the 0.1401 low aligned with the 61.8% level of a larger 12-hour move. These levels may act as support or psychological thresholds for short-term buyers.
Market participants may now focus on the 0.1401–0.1412 range for potential reversal cues. However, a break below 0.1400 could accelerate the downtrend, with risks skewed to the downside over the next 24 hours.
