The Enzyme/Tether (MLNUSDT) pair opened at $7.81 at 12:00 ET–1 and closed at $8.18 at 12:00 ET, with a high of $8.24 and a low of $7.76. Total volume for the 24-hour period was 52,000.71, and notional turnover amounted to approximately $420,000. Price rallied through key resistance levels, forming strong bullish candlestick patterns such as the bullish engulfing and hammer, especially in the late afternoon and early night hours.

Structure-wise, the price broke through prior resistance levels that had previously acted as ceilings, and support levels at $7.85 and $7.95 were convincingly retested and validated. A doji formed briefly near $8.03, suggesting short-term indecision, but was quickly followed by a strong bullish reversal. The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart are both rising, reinforcing the uptrend. On the daily chart, the 50, 100, and 200-period SMAs are also trending upward, indicating continued alignment with the bullish momentum.

MACD turned positive in the late afternoon, with a clear crossover above the signal line, while the histogram expanded, suggesting growing bullish strength. RSI peaked above 70, reaching overbought territory, but has yet to show signs of topping. Bollinger Bands expanded significantly in the evening, reflecting increased volatility, and price closed near the upper band, hinting at a potential continuation of the trend.

Volume increased dramatically during the late afternoon and early evening, with the largest 15-minute candle showing over 2,000 notional turnover. This aligns well with the price action, suggesting strong conviction in the move higher. The Fibonacci retracement levels of the recent swing from $7.76 to $8.24 suggest possible pullback targets at 61.8% ($8.03) and 38.2% ($8.10). So far, price has shown strength to hold above both levels. Divergence between price and RSI is not yet evident, but traders should watch for any weakening in volume or RSI topping behavior as early warning signs.

Looking ahead, the key resistance now sits at $8.24 and beyond, with a possible test of the upper Bollinger Band. A break above this level could trigger further momentum. However, a pullback to the 61.8% Fibonacci level or the 50-period moving average could offer a short-term correction opportunity. Traders should be cautious if volume begins to wane at higher levels or if RSI fails to re-enter overbought territory.

Backtest Hypothesis
The provided backtesting strategy suggests entering long positions when the 20-period MA crosses above the 50-period MA on the 15-minute chart, confirmed by a bullish candlestick pattern and a RSI reading below 50. The strategy aims to capture early-stage bullish momentum with a stop-loss placed below the most recent swing low. Based on today’s data, this signal was activated during the late afternoon hours, aligning with the strong 15-minute bullish engulfing pattern and a RSI reading below 50. The strategy could potentially have captured most of the upward move. A backtest over historical data would help confirm the effectiveness of this trigger under different volatility and liquidity conditions.
