Structure & Formations

A bearish engulfing pattern appeared on the $1.267 level, followed by a failed bullish bounce off the $1.243 swing low.

Moving Averages
On the 5-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages converged in the $1.26–1.265 range but failed to hold as price dropped. On the daily chart, the 50-period MA sits slightly above the 100-period MA, with the 200-period MA acting as a key long-term reference near $1.25.
MACD & RSI
The MACD histogram showed a bullish divergence in the morning, aligning with a rally to $1.283, but a bearish crossover followed in the afternoon. RSI peaked at overbought levels in the early morning before falling into oversold territory by late day, suggesting potential exhaustion in both directions.
Bollinger Bands
Volatility expanded in the early hours, with the upper band reaching $1.283 and the lower band touching $1.247. Price then contracted back toward the 20-period MA, ending near the lower band at $1.242, indicating weak conviction in the short term.
Volume & Turnover
Volume spiked during the morning breakout but failed to follow through, with the largest 5-minute volume at $1.270 (178,498.84). Notional turnover mirrored the volume pattern, peaking at $234,287.77. A divergence between price and volume in the afternoon signaled a possible bearish reversal.
Fibonacci Retracements
Key retracements of the $1.241–$1.283 swing include 61.8% at $1.261 and 38.2% at $1.264. Price tested both levels but failed to hold, falling back toward $1.25–$1.247 support.
GNSUSDT may face renewed bearish pressure below $1.25, with a possible test of $1.241–$1.243. Traders should monitor volume for confirmation of any breakouts and watch for a potential consolidation phase. As always, unexpected news or macro shifts could disrupt short-term bias.
