Momentum and Indicators

Volatility and Bollinger Bands
Volatility expanded significantly during the session, with a 9.3% range. Price tested the lower Bollinger Band multiple times, especially near the end of the session, indicating increased selling pressure.
Volume and Turnover
Volume spiked during the late afternoon and early evening ET, particularly around the $3.24–$3.26 range, confirming the bearish breakdown. The final 30-minute period saw a sharp drop to $3.151, but with lower volume, signaling cautious sentiment.
Fibonacci Retracements
On the 5-minute chart, price reached key Fibonacci levels at 61.8% (around $3.22) and 78.6% (around $3.16), suggesting critical psychological levels. A rebound near $3.23 aligns with a 38.2% retracement, hinting at potential short-term resistance.
In the next 24 hours, a test of $3.23 may signal short-term consolidation, but a break below $3.13 could extend the decline. Investors should watch for volume confirmation on any bounce.
