Linea/Turkish Lira (LINEATRY) opened at 0.5676 (12:00 ET - 1) and traded as high as 0.5845 before closing at 0.5505 at 12:00 ET. Total 24-hour volume reached 33,288,544.0 units, with notional turnover estimated at $18,262,573. The session saw a volatile move with a bearish reversal from 0.5845 to 0.5505, capped by a strong bearish bias in the final hours.

Structure & Formations

LINEATRY's 24-hour chart revealed a distinct bearish reversal pattern from the session high of 0.5845, supported by a strong bearish engulfing candle in the early morning. Key resistance levels appear around 0.5845–0.5868, while critical support is now forming near 0.5505–0.5496. A potential Fibonacci 61.8% retracement level near 0.5630 could act as a short-term floor.

Moving Averages

The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart showed a clear bearish crossover in the early morning hours, confirming the shift in momentum. The 50-period daily MA currently sits near 0.5720, indicating that the recent decline has oversold the pair to some extent. However, the 200-day MA remains above current levels at 0.5840, suggesting a broader bearish trend could persist.

MACD & RSI

The MACD crossed into negative territory by 04:30 ET, with a strong bearish divergence forming as prices continued to fall. RSI peaked at overbought levels earlier in the session but declined sharply into oversold territory near the close, signaling potential exhaustion in the downtrend. These indicators suggest LINEATRY may consolidate around 0.5505 before any meaningful recovery attempt.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility expanded during the early hours, with price reaching the upper band at 0.5845 before retracting sharply. By the close, price had collapsed to the lower band, suggesting a significant contraction in short-term volatility. This pattern hints at a possible retest of the 0.5496–0.5505 support zone as a potential trigger for a rebound.

Volume & Turnover

Volume surged dramatically during the bearish phase from 04:00 to 05:00 ET, with large notional trades pushing price down from 0.5690 to 0.5473. Notably, turnover diverged from price in the final hour, with high volume failing to push price below 0.5505, suggesting a potential near-term bottoming process.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci to the 0.5473–0.5845 swing, key levels include 38.2% at 0.5673 and 61.8% at 0.5630. Price has failed to hold the 0.5630 level and is now testing the 50% retracement area at 0.5659, which may provide support or trigger a continuation of the bearish trend.

Backtest Hypothesis

A backtest on the “sell-on-Bearish Engulfing” strategy could be structured using the LINEATRY dataset, with entry triggered at the close of a bearish engulfing pattern and a short position held for 5 trading days. Given the recent 15-minute bearish engulfing pattern around 04:30 ET and the subsequent sharp decline, this period could serve as a test case for such a strategy. A stop-loss at 0.5730 and a take-profit at 0.5450 would provide defined risk and reward parameters.
