Structure & Formations

The 15-minute chart reveals a strong bullish engulfing pattern at 17:30 ET, followed by a bearish pinocchio at 23:30 ET, suggesting a potential reversal. Key support levels emerged at $0.0197, $0.0194, and $0.0191, while resistance remains clustered around $0.0203–0.0204. A doji formed near $0.0202 at 21:30 ET, indicating indecision and a possible pause in the upward momentum.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages suggest the price is trending upward, but with increasing compression as the 50SMA approaches the 20SMA from below. On a daily timeframe, the 50, 100, and 200-period moving averages indicate a broader consolidation phase, with the 50SMA currently acting as a potential dynamic support level around $0.0196.

MACD & RSI

The MACD histogram shows positive momentum from 17:30 to 20:15 ET, before a rapid divergence as the histogram turns negative by 23:00 ET. The RSI peaked at 74 in the midday session, indicating overbought territory, followed by a sharp decline to 45 by 23:45 ET—suggesting a potential oversold bounce may be limited unless bullish volume picks up.

Bollinger Bands

Bollinger Bands expanded significantly after 17:30 ET due to rising volatility, with price reaching the upper band by 17:45 ET. A retracement brought the pair closer to the lower band by 23:45 ET, indicating a healthy range expansion. Price has since retested the middle band, showing mixed signals—suggesting the pair could consolidate or continue in a wider range.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked to over 13.7 million units at 17:30 ET, aligning with the bullish breakout. However, turnover failed to confirm the strength, remaining below $500,000. Subsequent volume dipped sharply after 23:00 ET, suggesting a lack of conviction in the bearish move. Divergence between volume and price could point to a reversal or exhaustion in the current trend.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci retracements to the 17:30–23:30 ET swing, key levels at 38.2% ($0.02008) and 61.8% ($0.01984) have been tested and currently appear to be acting as pivot points. On the daily chart, the 38.2% level at $0.0197 is currently offering support, with the 61.8% at $0.0194 likely next in line if bearish momentum continues.

Backtest Hypothesis

A backtest based on the MACD crossover strategy could be valuable for this pair, but the data provider was unable to retrieve the MACD for MUBARAKUSDT. To proceed, it would be necessary to confirm the correct exchange and ticker symbol (e.g., BINANCE:MUBARAKUSDT) or consider an alternative symbol for which MACD data is available. Once a valid ticker is confirmed, a Golden Cross (bullish) and Death Cross (bearish) event detection model could be implemented for the period 2022-01-01 to 2025-11-08 to evaluate its effectiveness as a trading signal. Given the mixed momentum and volume indicators seen today, a refined backtest could help quantify the reliability of such signals in this market context.
