Structure & Formations
The price action displayed a clear bullish engulfing pattern near 129.39, followed by a strong reversal to 130.71. A bearish 5-minute candle with a long upper wick emerged at 130.19, signaling potential overhead pressure. A key support level appears to have formed around 128.85, where price found repeated buying interest.
Moving Averages and Momentum
The 20-period and 50-period moving averages provided support during the afternoon pullback, with the 20-period line acting as a near-term floor. RSI crossed into overbought territory at 68 around 130.19, suggesting a possible near-term correction.
The MACD histogram showed a peak divergence at 130.71, hinting at potential waning momentum.
Volatility and Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands expanded significantly after 18:45 ET, reflecting heightened volatility as price surged past the upper band. A notable contraction occurred in the early morning hours, which may have signaled an accumulation phase before the breakout. Price closed near the upper band at 124.57, indicating elevated risk of a short-term pullback.
Volume and Turnover
The highest volume of the session was recorded at 27.308 with a close at 130.02, confirming strength in that price range. A divergence between price and volume was noted as price fell from 130.71 to 124.57, with volume declining sharply. Notional turnover spiked during the 130.19–130.71 range, supporting the validity of that move.
Fibonacci Retracements
Key Fibonacci retracement levels were formed from the 123.73 low to the 130.71 high. The 61.8% level at approximately 128.80 held firm multiple times, while the 38.2% level at 126.96 showed minimal resistance. The final close near 124.57 suggests a possible test of the 50% retracement level in the coming 24 hours.
The market appears to be consolidating after a sharp 6.18% move higher, with key resistance at 128.85 and support at 124.57. A sustained close above 128.85 could indicate renewed bullish momentum, but investors should watch for signs of waning volume and overbought conditions. A pullback to test the 124.57 level may occur, particularly if short-term overbought RSI levels trigger profit-taking.
