Structure & Formations
Price action on the 5-minute chart showed a breakdown below 0.1231, a key level of previous support. A bearish engulfing pattern was observed around 19:15 ET, followed by a sharp decline into oversold territory. A small doji near 0.1207 suggests short-term indecision.
Moving Averages
On the 5-minute chart, price closed below both 20 and 50-period moving averages, reinforcing a bearish bias. The 50-period MA at ~0.1234 served as initial resistance during the morning hours but failed to hold. Daily moving averages suggest a longer-term consolidation phase near 0.122–0.124.
MACD & RSI
MACD turned negative mid-session, with the line crossing below the signal line to confirm bearish momentum. RSI reached a low of ~28 in the late afternoon, indicating potential for a minor rebound. However, divergence between price and RSI suggests caution about a sustained reversal.
Bollinger Bands
Volatility expanded sharply during the session, with Bollinger Bands widening and price reaching the lower band near 0.1162. This suggests increased uncertainty and potential for a bounce back toward the mid-band.
Volume & Turnover
Volume increased significantly during the early hours of the session, especially between 12:00 and 14:00 ET, as the price declined. Turnover spiked during the breakdown below 0.1231, indicating conviction in bearish positioning.
Fibonacci Retracements
Recent 5-minute swings showed price finding support at the 61.8% Fibonacci level (~0.1208), which may serve as a short-term floor.
On the daily chart, the 38.2% retracement (~0.1222) appears to be holding, suggesting a possible range-bound consolidation phase.
The path of least resistance appears to be downward, with support near 0.1208 and resistance near 0.1231. Investors should remain cautious of further bearish momentum or a short-term rebound off oversold levels. A break below 0.1208 could open the next support level at 0.1186, increasing the risk of a deeper pullback.
