GMX/USDC opened at 16.67 on 2025-09-25 at 12:00 ET, reaching a high of 16.73 before closing at 16.15 on 2025-09-26 at 12:00 ET. The pair traded between 15.91 and 16.73 over the 24-hour period, with total volume of 35,981.87 and a notional turnover of $583,066.20.
Price action was characterized by a distinct bearish reversal. After forming a short-lived bullish divergence near 16.30, the pair broke decisively below this level with a large volume bar of 9,686.94. This suggests increased bearish conviction. A doji formed near 16.15, indicating indecision at the close, and the price remains below key 20-period and 50-period moving averages, which currently sit at ~16.22 and ~16.28 respectively.
The 20-period MA crossed below the 50-period MA (death cross) mid-day, reinforcing bearish momentum. RSI dipped into oversold territory near 30, and MACD moved into negative territory with a bearish crossover, signaling a continuation of the downtrend. Bollinger Bands showed a moderate expansion in volatility, with price currently sitting near the lower band at 16.12, suggesting the bearish trend may persist for a short while.
Fibonacci retracement levels based on the 15-minute swing from 15.91 to 16.73 show 61.8% at ~16.25 and 38.2% at ~16.41. The price currently rests near the 61.8% level, which could act as a short-term support or pivot point. On a daily chart, the 61.8% retracement is at ~16.35, which may become a critical level if the trend reverses. Key support levels identified include 16.15, 16.10, and 16.00, with corresponding resistance at 16.30 and 16.45.
Volume spiked during the bearish breakdown but has since normalized. However, turnover has shown a slight divergence from price as the session closed, suggesting potential for a bounce. If price holds above 16.10, a retest of the 16.30 level could occur. A break below 16.00 may open the door to deeper bearish territory. Traders should monitor for a reversal candlestick pattern near 16.00 or a strong close above 16.30 for a bullish bias shift.
Backtest Hypothesis
A potential backtesting strategy involves entering a short position when GMX/USDC breaks below the 50-period moving average on the 15-minute chart, confirmed by a bearish MACD crossover and a RSI below 50. A stop-loss could be placed above the 20-period moving average, while a take-profit could be set at the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level. This setup was evident today around 17:45 ET and proved effective with a strong follow-through move. A backtest over the past 30 days may validate the strategy's profitability, especially in high-volatility environments with clear trend confirmation.
