Total volume reached 23,614.27 units, with notional turnover estimated at $71.33 (based on average price of 3.02e-06). The price showed a bearish drift, with late-day volatility suggesting a possible near-term breakdown of key support levels.
Structure & Formations
Price action revealed a bearish structure with several bearish engulfing and hanging man patterns appearing as support levels were tested. A key support level at 3.05e-06 appears to be in play after a rejection from 3.07e-06. Resistance remains strong around 3.11e-06–3.13e-06, where price repeatedly failed to consolidate above.
Moving Averages
On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages crossed downward in the early afternoon, signaling bearish
. For the daily chart, the 50-period MA is above the 100- and 200-period MAs, suggesting a weak trend or consolidation phase is likely to continue.
MACD & RSI
The MACD line turned negative and remained below the signal line, reinforcing bearish momentum. RSI dipped below 30 during the last four hours of trading, indicating potential oversold conditions. However, volume failed to confirm a strong bounce, suggesting bearish continuation may be more likely.
Bollinger Bands
Price spent much of the session within the Bollinger Bands, showing low volatility. A late-day contraction in band width was followed by a sharp move downward, breaking the lower band for the first time in 24 hours, indicating a potential breakout in bearish direction.
Volume & Turnover
Volume surged significantly in the final 8 hours of the session, with the largest spike occurring at 22:30 ET–23:45 ET when turnover hit $1.74 million. This volume increase was accompanied by a price decline, suggesting bearish confirmation. Price and turnover did not diverge, pointing to strong conviction in the downward move.
Fibonacci Retracements
Fibonacci levels on the 24-hour range showed 3.09e-06 as a key 61.8% retracement level, which was broken with high volume. Further retracement levels at 2.97e-06 (38.2%) and 2.90e-06 (23.6%) may act as future support if the bearish trend continues.
Backtest Hypothesis
A robust backtest would require specifying a single stock or list of tickers for evaluation. Given a specific instrument, I would scan for Doji Star patterns since January 1, 2022, and simulate a strategy of entering at the next session’s open, holding for one trading day, and measuring returns up to November 11, 2025. This approach aligns with technical signals like those seen in the current dataset, where indecision patterns preceded bearish breaks.
