Structure & Formations

Price action formed a bearish breakdown from the 0.2225 level following a failed rally attempt. A notable bearish engulfing pattern developed around 05:30 ET (2025-08-29 053000) as price closed at 0.22022 from an open at 0.22027. A long bearish candle at 07:15 ET confirmed the downward shift. A key support level now appears to be at the 0.215 level, with resistance testing at 0.2175 after a minor bounce. A doji formed at 11:45 ET, signaling potential indecision.

Moving Averages

The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart showed a strong bearish crossover early in the session. The 50-period line crossed below the 20-period line around 04:30 ET, confirming a bearish bias. On the daily chart, the 50 and 200-period moving averages are aligned bearishly, with price well below the 100-period line. This suggests the short-term trend has shifted decisively lower.

MACD & RSI

The MACD turned negative by 04:00 ET, with bearish divergence emerging as price made a higher low but MACD printed a lower low. RSI reached a near oversold level of 25 by 09:15 ET, hinting at potential for a near-term bounce. However, a strong bearish momentum reading has kept RSI below 50 for most of the session, indicating the downtrend remains intact.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility expanded sharply between 08:00 ET and 09:30 ET, with price breaking below the lower band at 0.21209. This was followed by a period of consolidation with price oscillating near the lower band. The 15-minute Bollinger Bands show a period of contraction before the break, suggesting a breakout was likely. The bands have now expanded, reflecting the recent aggressive bearish move.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked to 186,018.0 at 08:45 ET, as price dropped from 0.21576 to 0.21439. This was one of the largest single-candle volume prints of the day and aligned with a sharp decline. Turnover also surged in the 12:45–14:30 ET timeframe as price tested key support and resistance levels. The divergence in volume and price during the morning session suggests continued bearish conviction.

Fibonacci Retracements

The 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the 0.2225 to 0.21209 swing was at 0.21543, which price tested but failed to hold. A minor rebound to 0.2175 aligns with the 38.2% level of the same swing, indicating limited bullish follow-through. On the daily chart, the 0.21299 level is a key psychological support, currently acting as a barrier to further decline.
