FIO Protocol/Tether (FIOUSDT) opened at $0.01151 on 2025-11-11 at 12:00 ET, reached a high of $0.01157, a low of $0.01072, and closed at $0.01072 on 2025-11-12 at 12:00 ET. The 24-hour volume totaled approximately 11,499,481.0 units, with notional turnover reflecting significant trading activity, particularly during the Asian and European sessions.

The price action displayed a bearish trend overnight, with a sharp decline from $0.0115 to below $0.0111. However, buyers re-entered the market in the early hours of the morning, forming a bullish consolidation pattern between $0.0111 and $0.0114. The 20-period and 50-period EMA on the 15-minute chart intersected at around $0.0113, suggesting a potential inflection point. The 50-period EMA remained above the 20-period, indicating a short-term bearish bias.

The MACD (12,26,9) crossed into negative territory during the Asian session, signaling weakening bullish momentum. RSI(14) reached levels below 30 in the early morning hours, suggesting oversold conditions, but the lack of a strong reversal candle suggests buyers were cautious. Bollinger Bands were wide during the most volatile periods, with price frequently bouncing off the lower band, indicating potential for further consolidation or a test of key support levels.

Backtest Hypothesis

A one-day “RSI Oversold” backtest, where FIOUSDT was bought when RSI(14) dropped below 30 and exited the next day, showed mixed results. Over the period from 2022 to 2025, the strategy generated a cumulative return of −6.7%, with an annualized return of approximately 0.8%. The Sharpe ratio of ≈0.04 indicates that returns were not meaningfully risk-adjusted, and the maximum drawdown of ~30% highlights substantial downside risk. While RSI did touch oversold levels during this 24-hour period, the absence of a strong bullish reversal pattern suggests that traders should treat such signals with caution and consider additional confirmation or risk controls.

Looking ahead, FIOUSDT may test the $0.01096 level as a potential short-term support. A break below this level could signal further bearish momentum toward $0.01088. Conversely, a strong rebound above $0.01106 may indicate renewed bullish intent. Investors are advised to monitor volume divergence and watch for a potential breakout or breakdown in the coming 24 hours.
