Structure & Formations

The 5-minute candlestick chart revealed a key bullish engulfing pattern forming near the 0.00755–0.00765 range, indicating short-term buying interest after a bearish decline. A descending channel was clearly defined between 0.00715 and 0.00790 over the daily chart. Price action appeared to consolidate around 0.00715–0.00725 in the final hours, forming a potential base for a bounce.

A long lower wick on the 0.00711–0.00716 5-minute candle near the close suggests rejection at lower levels.

Moving Averages

On the 5-minute chart, price briefly crossed above the 20-period and 50-period moving averages around 0.0076–0.0077, before reversing downward. On the daily chart, the 50-, 100-, and 200-period moving averages showed a bearish alignment, with the 50-period MA at 0.00752 below the 200-period MA at 0.00776, reinforcing a broader downward trend.

MACD & RSI

The MACD line turned negative after the peak at 0.0078–0.0079, with the histogram showing bearish divergence as momentum faded. RSI dropped into oversold territory near 0.00715–0.0072, reaching levels of ~28, suggesting the potential for a short-term bounce. However, RSI has not yet crossed back above 50, and the bearish divergence in momentum remains a concern.

Bollinger Bands

Price compressed within a narrow Bollinger Band range near 0.0071–0.0072 in the final hours, indicating low volatility and possible consolidation. This could precede a breakout or breakdown, depending on next-day volume and sentiment. The mid-band at 0.00718 acted as a temporary resistance, suggesting a potential target if the current support level holds.

Volume & Turnover

Volume surged to over 56.9 million at 0.0078–0.0079, but reversed sharply with a large volume of 51.9 million at 0.00714–0.00717, confirming bearish pressure. Turnover also spiked at higher levels before declining, suggesting profit-taking by larger players. The final 5-minute candles showed lower volume, which may indicate reduced conviction in the current bearish move.

Fibonacci Retracements

On the 5-minute chart, a key retracement level at 0.00743 (38.2%) appeared to hold temporarily before price continued lower. On the daily chart, 61.8% Fibonacci retracement at 0.00748 was tested and failed, reinforcing bearish bias. The current price near 0.00715 sits below these retracement levels, indicating continued downward pressure unless a strong bullish reversal occurs.

The market could test the 0.00710–0.00705 area in the next 24 hours as a new support level, with a possible bounce if buying interest returns. However, risks remain on the downside if bears regain control after a failed bounce, which may drive price toward 0.00700–0.00695. Investors should monitor volume and RSI for signs of reversal or continuation.
