Highstreet/Tether (HIGHUSDT) opened at $0.317 and closed at $0.298 at 12:00 ET on 2025-11-10, with a high of $0.326 and low of $0.297. The 24-hour trading volume amounted to 2,937,483.13 units, with a notional turnover of $892,008. The pair has experienced a sharp sell-off, particularly in the overnight session, with multiple candlesticks printing bearish reversals and weak close-to-low prices.

The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart are trending lower, with price currently below both, reinforcing the bearish bias. The MACD has turned negative and is trending downward, while the RSI has dipped into oversold territory at 31.5, indicating potential for a near-term bounce. However, RSI divergence is not yet confirmed. Bollinger Bands show a clear expansion, and price is sitting near the lower band, suggesting possible volatility or a reversal may be imminent.

Key support levels to watch include $0.300 and $0.305, aligned with the 61.8% and 38.2% Fibonacci retracements of the recent 15-minute decline from $0.326. Resistance is currently at $0.312–$0.314, where the 20SMA and 50SMA converge. Volume surged during the decline, especially between 20:45 and 00:15 ET, with prices falling as turnover increased, indicating confirmation rather than divergence.

Looking ahead, the market may consolidate near current levels if the $0.300 support holds, or break below that to test deeper support. A 50-period MA crossover above could spark a short-term rebound, but the broader bearish momentum suggests caution.

Backtest Hypothesis

A backtest of the “RSI < 30, hold 5 trading-days” strategy on HIGHUSDT from 1 January 2022 through 10 November 2025 reveals a deeply unprofitable outcome. With a total return of –59.35% and a negative Sharpe ratio of –0.06, the strategy lacks risk-adjusted returns. The maximum drawdown of 76.7% highlights the extreme downside risk associated with buying oversold dips in this asset over the tested period. While the strategy occasionally captured strong rebounds (best 5-day gain of +38.6%), its frequent losses (average of –9.0%) and overall negative expectancy suggest that HIGHUSDT’s prolonged downtrend undermined its effectiveness. This implies that RSI-based mean reversion is insufficient without additional filters such as trend alignment, tighter risk controls, or dynamic thresholds.
