Structure & Patterns
A bearish engulfing pattern formed near 0.7250 during the early hours of January 14, signaling a shift in sentiment. Price then broke below 0.6900 after a consolidation phase, confirming a breakdown of key support. The 5-minute chart shows a potential double-bottom formation around 0.6800, though it remains unconfirmed.
Momentum and Volatility
RSI declined from overbought territory near 75 to mid-40s, indicating fading bullish momentum. The 5-minute MACD crossed below zero mid-day, reinforcing bearish bias.
Volatility expanded with a 6.4% move below the 20-period Bollinger Band, indicating a potential consolidation phase ahead.
Volume and Turnover Analysis
High-volume clusters occurred around 0.7250–0.7450 and 0.6800–0.6900, suggesting key inflection points. However, volume waned during the final 4–6 hours, hinting at reduced conviction in the downward move. A divergence between volume and price during the final decline raises the possibility of a near-term bounce.
Key Levels and Fibonacci
Immediate support now sits at 0.6800 and 0.6729 (previous low), with Fibonacci retracement levels projecting a potential bounce at 38.2% (0.6844) and 61.8% (0.6933). Resistance remains at 0.6960 and the 50-period moving average on the 5-minute chart.
Looking ahead, price may test the 0.6800 level for a potential bounce, with a failure to hold that level risking a deeper correction. Investors should remain cautious as overextension below 0.6750 could accelerate the decline.
