MACD & RSI
The MACD turned positive in the final hour, confirming the recent bullish breakout. RSI reached a low of 35 in early ET hours and closed near 52, suggesting moderate bullish momentum without overbought conditions. A bearish divergence occurred during the early decline, which was later negated by the final rally.

Volatility remained moderate throughout the session, with price remaining within the Bollinger Bands for most of the period.
The final hour saw a slight expansion, and the close occurred near the upper band, suggesting a potential continuation of the upward move.
Volume & Turnover
Volume surged in the 03:00–04:00 ET timeframe, coinciding with a test of the 0.00444 support level. Notional turnover confirmed this move, aligning with the price decline. A final volume spike of 3921 units accompanied the breakout above 0.00453, reinforcing the short-term bullish signal.
Fibonacci Retracements
Applying Fibonacci to the key swing from 0.00454 to 0.00444, the 0.618 retracement level sits at 0.00449—aligning with a cluster of price action. This level could act as a pivot for near-term buyers.
Price appears to be testing a key support zone and showing early signs of a potential reversal. While a break above 0.00454 could open the door for a 0.00456 target, caution is warranted if volume fails to confirm further gains. A retest of the 0.00446 level could trigger renewed selling, adding short-term risk.
