Structure & Formations
Price action revealed a bearish breakdown from a consolidation range, with a key support at $0.00001054 acting as a magnet. A bearish engulfing pattern appeared during the early hours of the morning, signaling a shift in sentiment.
A doji formed near $0.00001062 in the late afternoon, suggesting indecision before a final pullback.
Moving Averages
On the 5-minute chart, price closed below both the 20SMA and 50SMA, suggesting short-term bearish bias. Daily averages (50, 100, 200) are not visible in the 5-minute data but would need to be checked for alignment.
MACD & RSI
MACD lines showed a bearish crossover with the signal line, and the histogram shrank slightly, indicating waning bearish momentum. RSI dipped into neutral territory around 45–50, suggesting potential for a minor rebound but not a reversal.
Bollinger Bands
Price spent much of the session near the lower Bollinger band, particularly after 8:00 ET. A contraction occurred briefly before the afternoon rally, followed by a modest expansion, but no strong breakout occurred.
Volume & Turnover
Volume surged in the late afternoon and early evening with a rally to $0.00001062 but failed to follow through, indicating a lack of conviction. Turnover spiked in tandem with volume, showing increased liquidity in key price zones.
Fibonacci Retracements
The $0.00001054 level corresponds to the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the recent 5-minute swing, suggesting a critical area for potential support. A break below $0.00001048 could trigger a move toward the next 38.2% retracement at $0.00001033.
Price appears to be preparing for a potential test of the $0.00001030–$0.00001040 range in the next 24 hours. Investors should monitor volume and RSI for early signs of bearish exhaustion or a potential rebound. Volatility remains elevated, and sharp corrections are possible if short-term support levels fail.
