Epic Chain/Tether (EPICUSDT) opened at 0.753 at 11:59 ET on 2025-11-10 and closed at 0.720 by 12:00 ET on 2025-11-11. Over the 24-hour period, the pair traded as high as 0.780 and as low as 0.693. The total traded volume was 1,936,283.0 units, with a notional turnover of $1,452,907.64.

The 15-minute chart shows the price forming a bearish trend, with multiple bearish engulfing patterns appearing between 02:00–03:30 ET. A key support level appears to be forming around the 0.720–0.725 range, with the 0.756–0.758 level acting as a potential short-term resistance. On the 20-period and 50-period moving averages, the price has been consistently below both, reinforcing the bearish bias.

RSI remains in oversold territory for most of the day, hitting a low of 23, but it has not generated a convincing reversal signal. MACD shows a negative divergence, with the histogram contracting and the line below the signal line, suggesting that the bearish trend is still intact. Volatility, as measured by Bollinger Bands, expanded significantly as price reached the lower band during the afternoon and retraced toward the mid-band by close.

The price appears to be consolidating at the 0.720 level, which is also a 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level from the recent high of 0.780 to the low of 0.693. Traders may look for a breakdown below 0.720 for further bearish potential, or a reversal above 0.756 to signal a possible recovery.

The current technical setup suggests a continuation of the bearish trend in the short term. A sustained move below 0.720 could open the door for a retest of 0.693, while a rejection above 0.725 may signal a temporary pause in the downtrend. Investors should be cautious of a false breakout above 0.756, as it could be a bear trap. Position sizing and stop-loss placement near key Fibonacci levels are advised to manage risk.

Backtest Hypothesis

To further evaluate the potential of this bearish setup, a backtesting strategy could be implemented based on support and resistance levels identified in the technical analysis. The strategy would trigger buy signals when price breaks above 0.756 (resistance) and sell signals when it breaks below 0.720 (support). A trailing stop could be set just below key support levels to protect against sudden reversals. Using the 20-period EMA as a filter, only trades aligned with the EMA trend would be considered.

Given the current price structure, a backtest from 2022-01-01 to 2025-11-11 could evaluate the effectiveness of this strategy in capturing trend movements and avoiding false breakouts. The results would include cumulative return, drawdown, hit ratio, and average hold time, offering a clearer view of whether a support-/resistance-based approach is viable for this asset.

To proceed, the correct historical price dataset for EPICUSDT must be available. If the exact exchange-specific ticker or a CSV/JSON file is provided, the backtest can be executed and results visualized. Otherwise, the strategy remains theoretical.
