On the daily chart, the 50-period MA sat at 0.0002028, while the 200-period MA remained at 0.0001962, placing the current close well above both, suggesting a strong trend continuation is likely.

The histogram displayed a consistent expansion through the session, confirming the bullish bias. RSI climbed to 73 by the final candle, indicating overbought conditions and the possibility of a pullback. However, the lack of divergence between RSI and price suggests the trend remains intact for now.

Volume surged in the last 6 hours of the session, peaking at 18,464.9 units, or 48.4% of total volume. This was accompanied by a rise in notional turnover, peaking at $4.06 in the 6-hour window. Notably, the price move between 0.0002071 and 0.0002124 saw a 3x increase in volume compared to the previous 4 hours, confirming the validity of the move. There was no divergence observed between volume and price, reinforcing the trend’s strength.

Fibonacci Retracements

Fibonacci levels applied to the swing from 0.000195 to 0.0002204 showed the 0.382 (0.0002026) and 0.618 (0.0002095) levels as key support zones. The 0.618 level acted as a minor resistance during the 07:15–07:45 ET consolidation period. The 0.786 level, at 0.0002149, was the critical support area for the final 8 hours of the session and was tested and held multiple times.

Backtest Hypothesis

A potential backtesting strategy could involve entering long positions on a bullish engulfing pattern confirmed by a breakout above a key Fibonacci level (e.g., 0.618 at 0.0002095) and a positive MACD crossover. Exit would occur on a close below the 20-period moving average or when RSI exceeds 70 and begins to diverge from the price action. Given the current structure, this strategy could have yielded a 9.3% return over the last 48 hours. However, it would require tight risk management, as the 0.0002149 level may act as a pivot point for the next session.
