Structure & Formations

The candlestick pattern over the last 24 hours showed a sharp bearish reversal after a short-lived bullish attempt. A key support level at 0.2732 was breached, and price failed to rebound, suggesting the next level of support may be at 0.2650–0.2680. A doji candle was observed near 0.2810, indicating indecision. A large bearish engulfing pattern formed as price fell from 0.2830 to 0.2656, confirming bearish momentum.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages were below the price after the drop, showing bearish alignment. The 20 MA crossed below the 50 MA (death cross), reinforcing the bearish bias. On the daily chart, the 50-period moving average is above the 100 and 200-period MAs, but price remains below all three, suggesting a strong bearish trend with potential for further downside.

MACD & RSI

The MACD indicator turned negative and showed bearish divergence as price fell below the 0.2750 level, confirming downward momentum. The RSI reached oversold territory near 30 but failed to bounce, indicating weak bullish follow-through. This suggests that the bearish trend may continue until a strong reversal signal is confirmed, and the RSI remains a key indicator to watch for potential bounces.

Bollinger Bands

Bollinger Bands showed a wide expansion during the sharp price decline, indicating heightened volatility. Price moved below the lower band at 0.2650–0.2680, confirming a strong bearish move. The band width remains wide, suggesting continued volatility. If the price breaks below the 0.2580 level, it could signal further expansion of the lower band, indicating a deeper bearish phase.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked during the initial bullish phase around 0.2830–0.2868, indicating accumulation before the bearish breakdown. However, volume dropped significantly after the price fall below 0.2732, suggesting reduced conviction in the bearish move. Notional turnover dropped in tandem, and there is a divergence between price and volume in the 0.2600–0.2650 range. This divergence could indicate a potential reversal or a period of consolidation.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci levels to the recent swing from 0.2868 to 0.2529, key retracement levels are at 0.2742 (38.2%) and 0.2635 (61.8%). Price is currently near the 61.8% level at 0.2635, and a break below this level could signal a deeper correction. On the 15-minute chart, the 61.8% retracement from the last high at 0.2868 is at 0.2759, and price may retest this area before deciding the next direction.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtesting strategy described involves a combination of RSI divergence and volume confirmation to identify potential reversal points in a bearish trend. Given the recent RSI oversold readings and weak bullish follow-through, the strategy could be applied by looking for a bullish divergence in RSI (price lows vs. RSI highs) and a simultaneous increase in volume to confirm the reversal. If such a setup appears near the 0.2635–0.2680 range, it may offer a strategic entry point for a long trade, though tight stop-loss placement would be essential due to the high volatility observed.
