Volatility and Key Levels

Price tested the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level from the 12108–12773 swing at 12580, before bouncing back. A 38.2% retracement level at 12650 appears to have acted as a pivot point for intraday traders.

Moving Averages

The 15-minute 20SMA and 50SMA crossed early on Friday afternoon, confirming a bullish crossover, which drove much of the morning's gains. By early Saturday, the 50SMA began to flatten, suggesting waning momentum. Over the last 24 hours, price has remained above the 200SMA, indicating a continuation of the longer-term bullish trend.

MACD & RSI

The RSI-14 reached overbought territory (80+) multiple times during the morning, before trending back to neutral levels. MACD showed a strong bullish crossover early, but the histogram began to flatten by the afternoon. A bearish divergence in RSI and a narrowing MACD histogram hint at a possible consolidation phase ahead.

Bollinger Bands

Price moved well above the upper Bollinger Band during the morning high (12773), indicating heightened volatility. The band width began to narrow in the early hours of Saturday, suggesting a potential consolidation phase. Price currently rests near the middle band, indicating a neutral position with no clear directional bias.

Volume & Turnover

Volume was concentrated in the first half of the 24-hour period, with a strong bullish breakout confirmed by high turnover. The peak volume occurred at 20:45–21:00 ET, with 2.5609 ETH traded at 12718–12742. In the later hours, volume declined and failed to confirm further price surges, indicating a potential exhaustion of bullish momentum.

Fibonacci Retracements

Key Fibonacci retracement levels from the 12108–12773 swing include 12650 (38.2%) and 12580 (61.8%). Price found support at 12650 twice and showed a pullback at 12580 before bouncing back, indicating a strong pivot area. The 23.6% level (~12695) also acted as a minor resistance in the afternoon.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtest strategy relies on RSI-14 to identify overbought/oversold conditions, but data retrieval for ETHPLN encountered an error. This suggests either an unsupported ticker or a missing data source. To proceed, one of the following must be confirmed:
1. Use an alternate symbol (e.g., ETH/PLN on Binance).
2. Provide custom RSI data for ETHPLN in CSV/JSON format.
3. Use a closely related pair such as ETHUSD with a conversion to PLN.

Given the current overbought RSI readings and bearish divergence, a backtesting strategy could reasonably use RSI-14 and MACD for short-term reversal signals. However, without valid RSI data for ETHPLN, accurate backtesting is not possible.
