Structure & Formations

Price traced a volatile path between key support at 0.772 and resistance at 0.792. A bullish engulfing pattern formed around 2025-1113 053000, where the 0.789–0.791 candle swallowed a prior bearish candle. This was followed by a 15-minute rally to 0.802. A bearish doji emerged near 0.80, hinting at indecision. Fibonacci retracement levels suggested a 61.8% retracement near 0.793, which held until early morning.

Moving Averages

The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart crossed into bullish alignment after 0.79. On the daily chart, the 50-period SMA (0.789) and 100-period SMA (0.785) remained in a bullish alignment, with the 200-period SMA at 0.783 acting as a deeper support.

MACD & RSI

MACD showed a positive crossover around 2025-1113 040000, coinciding with the rally to 0.802. The RSI peaked at 55, indicating moderate strength without reaching overbought territory. The histogram showed expanding positive divergence through the morning, followed by a contraction as momentum waned in the afternoon.

Bollinger Bands

Price moved within a moderate width of the Bollinger Bands, with a brief expansion near 0.80. The upper band reached 0.805, while the lower band touched 0.774. Price closed near the mid-band, suggesting continuation potential unless a breakout fails.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked above 40,000 at 04:00 ET, coinciding with a breakout to 0.802. Turnover aligned with this, peaking at 32,000 USD. However, volume declined significantly post 0.80, and the closing candle on the 24-hour window showed low volume (29,190.6) despite a bearish close, indicating weak conviction.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci to the recent swing low (0.770) and high (0.802), key levels include 38.2% at 0.787 and 61.8% at 0.796. Price closed near the 38.2% level and may test 0.796 in the coming 24 hours as a possible target.

Backtest Hypothesis

A backtest of the Bullish Engulfing pattern on the 15-minute chart could use the rally to 0.802 (bullish engulfing at 053000) as a candidate entry point. A 3-day holding period from that signal would test the continuation potential of the pattern in this volatile pairing. To align with the observed RSI, MACD, and Fibonacci levels, a structured backtest could evaluate the performance of such signals from 2022–2025 using the same indicators, including a stop-loss at 0.775 and a take-profit at 0.805.
