Lagrange/BNB (LABNB) opened at 0.0003396 on 2025-10-03 12:00 ET and closed at 0.0003214 on 2025-10-04 12:00 ET, with a high of 0.0003404 and a low of 0.000318. Total trading volume over the 24-hour period was 34,256.7, and notional turnover amounted to approximately 10.77 (calculated as sum of volume × close). The price action featured a sharp bearish trend, especially after 19:45 ET when the price dropped from 0.000338 to 0.000319 in a single candle.
Structure & Formations
The price formed a sharp bearish trend after 19:45 ET, with a large candle showing a significant rejection at higher levels. A long bearish candle with a wick indicated rejection of higher prices and bearish control. Resistance appears to have formed around 0.0003351–0.0003387, while support emerged strongly at 0.0003294–0.0003276. A consolidation phase after 00:45 ET on 2025-10-04 showed limited volatility and no clear breakout.
Moving Averages
Short-term (15-minute) momentum indicators like the 20- and 50-period moving averages showed a steep downward bias, indicating strong bearish control. On the daily chart, the 50- and 100-period MAs would likely show a bearish crossover if plotted over recent sessions, reinforcing the idea of continued downward pressure. The 200-period MA may also be acting as a key long-term support level if the price continues to trend lower.
MACD & RSI
The MACD histogram shows bearish momentum with a large negative divergence in the last 12 hours, while the RSI has dropped below 30, signaling oversold conditions. However, RSI’s failure to rebound suggests bearish exhaustion may not yet be complete. If the RSI remains below 30 for more than 24 hours, a short-term bounce or consolidation may be possible.
Bollinger Bands
Volatility expanded early in the session with the price bouncing off the upper band before entering a period of extreme contraction after 19:45 ET. The price has remained near the lower band for much of the session, signaling a bearish trend with low volatility. A breakout above the midline could indicate a short-term reversal, but this would require a sharp volume increase and a move above 0.0003351 to confirm.
Volume & Turnover
Volume dropped significantly after 19:45 ET, with nearly 22 hours of zero or negligible volume. This suggests a lack of interest in the pair during the bearish phase. Notional turnover followed a similar pattern, with the most significant trades occurring in the first few hours of the session. Divergences between price and turnover suggest limited conviction behind the recent bearish move.
Fibonacci Retracements
Applying Fibonacci to the key 15-minute swing from 0.0003404 (high) to 0.000319 (low), the 38.2% and 61.8% levels fall around 0.0003321 and 0.0003262, respectively. The current price of 0.0003214 is below both, suggesting a potential oversold condition. If buyers return near 0.0003262, a bounce could be in play, but bearish control remains intact unless volume increases.
Backtest Hypothesis
A potential backtest strategy could involve a short-biased setup triggered by a close below a key Fibonacci retracement level (e.g., 0.0003262) combined with a bearish divergence in RSI and a volume contraction. A stop-loss could be placed above the recent high of 0.0003387, with a target of the next Fibonacci level or a key support zone. The Bollinger Band lower boundary also serves as a dynamic support, providing additional confirmation for a trade setup. This strategy would benefit from low volatility and high bearish momentum indicators like MACD.
