Structure & Formations

Price action shows a bearish breakdown from the 8.17–8.19 consolidation range, marked by a bearish engulfing pattern. A key support level appears to be forming near $8.11, where the price has stalled for several hours. Resistance at $8.22 has failed to hold during multiple tests, indicating weakening bullish momentum.

Moving Averages

On the 5-minute chart, the 20 and 50-period moving averages have both turned sharply lower, confirming a bearish tilt. Daily moving averages (50, 100, 200) are likely aligned with this bearish bias, though exact values are not available in the provided dataset.

MACD & RSI

Momentum indicators suggest a strong bearish phase. The RSI has fallen into oversold territory near 30, which may indicate a potential bounce but does not confirm a reversal. MACD is negative and declining, reinforcing bearish momentum.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility increased during the selloff to $8.11, with price breaking below the lower Bollinger Band. The bands have since contracted, suggesting a potential period of consolidation or another directional move.

Volume & Turnover

The most aggressive selloff occurred between 18:00 and 19:30 ET, where turnover spiked. Volume then sharply declined after 08:00 ET, indicating waning interest. The divergence between price and volume suggests a possible pause in the downward trend.

Fibonacci Retracements

Recent swings from 8.11 to 8.27 show a 61.8% retracement near $8.19, which has acted as a key resistance level. If price breaks below the 38.2% level at $8.14, it could signal a deeper bearish phase.

Price appears to be in a consolidation phase near $8.11 and may test this level again in the next 24 hours. Investors should monitor for a break below $8.11 for confirmation of a new downtrend, but risk remains skewed to the downside in the near term.
