Structure & Formations
The price of Dodo displayed a clear bearish bias throughout the session, forming a key bearish engulfing candle at 19:45 ET, breaking below the 0.0476 level. This level had previously acted as a minor resistance but became a significant support during earlier recovery attempts. A large bear trap was observed around 0.0483–0.0486 during the early evening hours, which failed to hold. A potential support zone appears to have formed between $0.0445 and $0.0449, with several consolidation candles clustering in this area. No notable bullish reversal patterns were observed, although a long lower shadow at 0.0444 at 06:15 ET suggests short-term buying interest.
Moving Averages
On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages have both moved lower, with the 20SMA crossing below the 50SMA at around 19:30 ET, forming a bearish death cross. Over the course of the 24-hour window, price has remained below both the 50SMA and 20SMA, indicating ongoing bearish control. On the daily chart, the 50DMA and 100DMA are likely to be in a bearish alignment, reinforcing the downward trend. Price remains below the 200DMA, suggesting a continuation of the medium-term bear phase.
MACD & RSI
The MACD turned negative in the late afternoon and remained in bearish territory for the remainder of the session, with the signal line pulling away from the histogram. The RSI hit an intraday low of 28 around 08:00 ET, indicating overbought conditions had reversed to a strong oversold state. While this could signal a potential short-term bounce, the lack of a significant positive divergence on RSI suggests bearish momentum remains intact. Momentum appears to have waned in the early morning hours, but buying interest has yet to re-emerge strongly.
Bollinger Bands
Volatility expanded significantly after 17:45 ET, with the
Bands widening to accommodate the $0.0493 high and the $0.0444 low. By the end of the session, price remained near the lower band, sitting below the 20-period band mean by approximately 0.0044. A narrowing of the bands was observed in the early hours of the morning, which could signal a period of consolidation before the next directional move. The current position near the lower band suggests potential for a retest of key levels.
Volume & Turnover
Volume remained relatively steady during the morning hours but spiked sharply in the early evening, particularly around the breakdown at 19:45 ET and again after 20:00 ET. These spikes coincided with strong price action moves to the downside. Turnover also increased during these periods, indicating strong conviction in the bearish move. However, volume declined significantly during the overnight hours, suggesting a lack of follow-through from short sellers. The divergence between declining price and low volume in the early morning may indicate short-term exhaustion, though this has yet to translate into a meaningful recovery.
Fibonacci Retracements
Applying Fibonacci retracements to the 15-minute swing from $0.0493 to $0.0444, key levels include 38.2% at $0.0465 and 61.8% at $0.0455. The price briefly tested the 50% level at $0.0469 during the overnight hours but failed to hold it. On the daily chart, a larger swing from $0.0493 to $0.0444 places the 61.8% retracement at $0.0466—close to the 15-minute 38.2% level—suggesting a confluence of support. A successful retest of this area could lead to further consolidation or a reversal attempt.
Dodo appears to be in the early stages of a correction, with technical indicators and price behavior aligning with bearish continuation patterns. While the RSI suggests a potential short-term rebound, the lack of strong volume or candlestick confirmation reduces the likelihood of a sustained reversal. Investors should monitor the $0.0445–$0.0455 range closely over the next 24 hours for signs of support or further breakdown. A break below $0.0445 could accelerate the decline, while a strong recovery above $0.0457 may indicate renewed buying interest. As always, position sizing and stop-loss placement remain critical for risk management.
