Price displayed a strong upward thrust during the late evening session (ET), breaking out to 0.02132, forming a bullish engulfing pattern on the 15-minute chart. However, a bearish reversal emerged afterward as price retracted into a consolidation phase near 0.0206, marked by a long upper shadow and indecision candles. A key support appears to be forming around 0.0205–0.0206, where price has bounced multiple times.

The 20-period and 50-period SMAs on the 15-minute chart crossed above during the rally, confirming a short-term bullish trend. However, the 50-period line has since crossed back below the 20-period line, signaling a potential bearish shift. On the daily chart, the 50-period SMA is above the 200-period SMA, suggesting a longer-term bullish bias. Momentum appears to have stalled, with the RSI peaking above 70 before a pullback to neutral levels.

Bollinger Bands widened during the 19:00–20:00 ET rally, indicating increased volatility, while the price closed near the lower band in the last four hours, signaling bearish pressure. A 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level from the 0.02132 high aligns closely with the 0.0206 price level, reinforcing its significance. A break below this level could trigger further downward movement toward 0.0204, with a potential target at 0.0202, the 38.2% level.

A backtest hypothesis may be formed using the overbought/oversold RSI signals observed today. The RSI crossed above 70 at the peak near 0.02132 and has since fallen below 50, suggesting a potential sell entry point at the 70 threshold and a buy entry at 30 if a rebound develops. A backtest using this RSI crossover strategy could provide further insight into its viability.
