Structure & Formations
The 5-minute OHLCV data showed a failed attempt to break through 1.44e-06, followed by consolidation near 1.41e-06, which appears to act as a key support. A small bearish engulfing pattern emerged briefly during the afternoon, but it failed to confirm a reversal. No significant doji or reversal patterns appeared, though price remained range-bound.
Moving Averages
On the 5-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages aligned closely around 1.41e-06, suggesting a lack of strong directional bias. The daily chart (not provided in full) would likely show a longer-term consolidation phase with the 50-period line near 1.41e-06.

MACD & RSI
The RSI hovered near the 50 level, indicating market indecision, while the MACD showed weak momentum with no clear divergence. Price action suggests a lack of conviction in either direction, with traders potentially awaiting a catalyst.
Bollinger Bands
Volatility was relatively low, with price staying near the middle band for most of the session. A contraction in Bollinger Bands suggests a potential breakout is brewing, but no clear direction has emerged yet.
Volume & Turnover
Trading volume was concentrated around key price levels, especially near 1.43e-06 and 1.41e-06. A noticeable drop in volume occurred late in the session, coinciding with the price’s return to consolidation. Turnover remained proportionally consistent with volume, with no divergence signaling a trap or breakout attempt.
Fibonacci Retracements
Applying Fibonacci retracement to the 1.41e-06 to 1.45e-06 swing, 1.43e-06 marked the 38.2% level and acted as a temporary ceiling. A break above 1.44e-06 would test the 61.8% retracement level, which aligns with recent failed attempts.
Price may test the 1.44e-06 resistance again in the next 24 hours, depending on broader market sentiment. A break below 1.40e-06 could signal renewed bearish momentum, but low volatility suggests caution.
