, with Kadena/Bitcoin confined between key 2.2e-07 and 2.9e-07 levels. No clear candlestick patterns emerged, but a cluster of long-wicked candles from 18:30 to 19:45 ET suggested indecision. A 20-period and 50-period EMA on the 15-minute chart remained flat, while the daily 50/200 EMA crossover indicated a neutral bias.MACD lines remained flat across the 24-hour period, with no clear divergence from price.

The Bollinger Bands contracted in the latter half of the session, signaling a potential period of consolidation or a pending breakout.
The volume profile was uneven, with a sharp spike at 18:30 ET and a steady decline from 20:00 ET onward. The low volume in the last few hours suggests weak follow-through on any directional move. Turnover and price action diverged at several points, hinting at a lack of conviction among large participants.

The RSI-based swing-trading strategy tested on this asset from 2022-01-01 to 2025-11-10 shows an exceptionally poor performance, with a cumulative return of -99.4% and a max drawdown of nearly the same. The average trade resulted in a -8.6% loss, despite some positive gains from winners, due to an extremely low hit-rate. This suggests that simply relying on RSI thresholds is ineffective for this pair. The asset’s tendency to remain in oversold conditions without a meaningful rebound into overbought territory further undermines the strategy’s viability.
The backtest also revealed the importance of refining the strategy with additional filters or risk controls. A basic RSI crossover approach, without trend or volatility management, is insufficient for capturing the nuanced behavior of KDABTC. A more robust approach might involve combining RSI with moving average crossovers or volatility-based scaling to mitigate false signals.
