Structure & Formations

The candlestick pattern during the final 15-minute interval on the 17:00–17:15 window formed a strong bullish engulfing pattern, confirming the breakout above 0.440. Earlier in the session, a series of bullish harami patterns near 0.430–0.432 helped consolidate price before the decisive move higher. Key support levels appear at 0.430 and 0.420, both of which were tested twice with strong rebounds. Resistance at 0.440, 0.450, and 0.472 acted as psychological thresholds, with 0.472 being the most recent and decisive level to break.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period moving average crossed above the 50-period MA in a clear golden cross, confirming bullish momentum. Over the daily timeframe, the 50-period MA appears to have just crossed above the 200-period MA, suggesting the asset may be entering a new uptrend. The 100-period MA currently sits just below 0.438, acting as a dynamic support line that was recently broken.

MACD & RSI

The MACD histogram showed a strong positive divergence during the late hours of the session, with the signal line crossing into positive territory from below. RSI surged from 45 to 68 during the breakout, indicating strong momentum and a move into overbought territory. While not in extreme overbought conditions (above 70), the RSI level suggests caution for short-term traders looking for a pullback.

Bollinger Bands

The price has spent much of the session within the Bollinger Band range, but the final hours saw a significant expansion in the band width, indicating a sharp increase in volatility. The close at 0.441 is near the upper band, suggesting the market may consolidate before the next directional move. A retest of the lower band at 0.425–0.430 could offer a short-term entry point for longs.

Volume & Turnover

Volume surged in the final hours, peaking at over 1.7 million units on the 16:30–16:45 and 16:45–17:00 intervals. Turnover mirrored this, with the highest notional volume recorded in the 15:30–15:45 and 16:45–17:00 timeframes. There was no notable divergence between price and volume, suggesting the move higher is broadly supported by strong on-chain activity.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci retracement to the recent swing from 0.412 to 0.472, the 50% and 61.8% levels are at 0.442 and 0.446, respectively. These levels align with the current price action and could serve as key psychological and technical thresholds. A break above 0.450 would target the 78.6% retracement level at 0.462, while a retest of 0.440 could provide a short-term trading opportunity.

Backtest Hypothesis

The inability to retrieve RSI data for WIFUSDT suggests either an issue with the symbol format (e.g., "WIF-USDT" instead of "WIFUSDT") or a lack of historical data for the pair, especially prior to its active listing. A backtest strategy could be adapted using the 15-minute MACD and volume confirmation as primary triggers. Using a simplified RSI approximation based on high/low data over the last 14 candles, the system could generate long signals when the price closes above the 20-period moving average, the MACD line crosses above the signal line, and volume increases by 50% from the 15-minute average. A short signal could be triggered on the inverse conditions, including a move below the 20-period MA and RSI dropping below 30. Given the current momentum and volume profile, this strategy may have had a high success rate in the past 24 hours.
