Structure & Formations

RLCBTC saw a strong bearish shift after forming engulfing patterns on the 5-minute chart at 7.39e-06 and 7.38e-06. A key support level emerged around 7.30e-06, where price rebounded twice, forming a potential base. A long lower shadow at 00:30 ET−1 suggested rejection near 7.27e-06, while a doji at 05:45 ET−1 signaled indecision after the sharp decline.

Momentum and Indicators

The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 5-minute chart both crossed bearishly, reinforcing the downward bias. RSI reached oversold levels around 30, suggesting a potential short-term bounce. MACD showed negative divergence with a narrowing histogram, indicating weakening bearish momentum.

Volatility and Bollinger Bands

Bollinger Bands widened during the sell-off, with price dropping below the 20-period lower band at 7.26e-06. Volatility appeared to contract slightly in the final hours, with price staying near the middle band. This suggests a possible consolidation phase ahead.

Volume and Turnover

Volume spiked to 940.4 RLC during the 22:15 ET−1 session, confirming a sharp move lower to 7.32e-06. However, volume declined during subsequent attempts to break below 7.30e-06, hinting at potential exhaustion. Turnover closely followed volume, showing alignment in price action during key moves.

Fibonacci Retracements

Recent 5-minute retracements showed a 61.8% level at 7.31e-06 acting as a minor resistance, which was broken with low volume, suggesting bearish continuation. The daily chart showed a 38.2% retracement near 7.35e-06 as a potential initial resistance level for a short-term rebound.

Price may test 7.25e-06 as the next support level in the next 24 hours, but a recovery toward 7.35e-06 could see renewed selling pressure. Investors should remain cautious of thin volume and mixed momentum signals.
