Structure & Formations

The price formed a bullish engulfing pattern during the 15:30–16:00 ET window (0.02191–0.02207), which is typically a strong reversal signal in an uptrend. A key support level appears to be forming around 0.02175–0.0218, where the price bounced on multiple occasions. Resistance is currently at 0.0221–0.02215, with a potential test expected following the breakout. A doji formed at 0.02207 around 16:00 ET, signaling a possible pause in bullish momentum.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages are both in bullish alignment, with price above both. This suggests continued momentum is likely if the trend holds. On the daily chart, the 50-period MA is also crossed above by the 100- and 200-period lines, indicating a strong medium-term bullish bias.

MACD & RSI

MACD lines show a bullish crossover and positive divergence, reinforcing the upside move. The RSI climbed to 70 and above during the breakout, entering overbought territory. This may signal a potential consolidation phase or pullback in the near term, though the strength of volume could prolong the bullish run.

Bollinger Bands

Price action has moved out of the upper Bollinger Band, indicating an expansion in volatility. This often precedes a retest of key levels. The bands have widened significantly in the last 6 hours, suggesting traders should monitor for a possible retracement toward the mid-band (~0.0219–0.02195) as a potential support zone.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked sharply during the breakout phase, reaching a peak at ~0.02204. This confirms the move and suggests institutional or large-capacity buying. Notional turnover also surged, aligning with price action. No significant divergence between price and volume was observed, supporting the validity of the move. A secondary volume high occurred near the 0.0219 level, indicating accumulation.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci to the recent 15-minute swing (0.02175–0.02207), the 38.2% retrace level is at ~0.02195 and the 61.8% at ~0.02186. The 61.8% level may provide a short-term support if the price pulls back. On the daily chart, the 50% and 61.8% retracement levels are near 0.0221–0.0223 and 0.0227 respectively, both of which could influence near-term behavior.

Backtest Hypothesis

Given the observed bullish engulfing pattern and strong volume confirmation during the breakout, a backtest strategy could be designed to enter long at the close of the 15:30–16:00 ET candle (0.02207) with a stop-loss below the 0.02184 support and a target at 0.0223 (61.8% Fibonacci extension). The RSI's overbought condition and the doji at the top suggest a trailing stop might be prudent once the target is reached. This setup could be tested over a historical 3-month window using 15-minute data for MDTUSDT. The strategy relies on strong volume and price confirmation to validate the breakout, minimizing false signals from low-liquidity or volatile assets.
