Structure & Formations
The 24-hour chart shows a bearish breakout attempt from a consolidation range between 0.911 and 0.934. Key resistance at 0.934 and support at 0.906 were tested but not decisively broken. A large bearish engulfing pattern formed near 0.934, confirming resistance. A doji at 0.927 suggests indecision at the upper end of the range.
Moving Averages
On the 5-minute chart, price closed below its 20-period and 50-period moving averages, indicating bearish momentum. Daily moving averages (50, 100, and 200) remain neutral, with price fluctuating around the 50-day line. The short-term trend appears to be shifting downward.
MACD & RSI
MACD turned negative in the final hours, with a bearish crossover suggesting momentum is shifting toward the downside. RSI declined to 48 by close, indicating bearish pressure and no immediate signs of overbought conditions. The oscillator has not shown any bullish divergences.
Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands expanded during the session, particularly after the 0.934 high, showing increased volatility. Price closed near the upper band, indicating overbought conditions. A pullback toward the lower band could signal short-term consolidation or a deeper correction.
Volume & Turnover
Volume was elevated during the breakout attempt near 0.934, but declined afterward, suggesting fading bullish conviction. Turnover confirmed bearish closes on the hourly charts, particularly between 04:00 and 06:00 ET. A divergence between price and volume suggests caution for further bullish moves.
Fibonacci Retracements
Applying Fibonacci retracements to the 0.906–0.934 swing, key levels at 0.915 (38.2%) and 0.912 (61.8%) appear to be key short-term support zones. If the 0.912 level breaks, a test of the 0.906 level could follow.
In the next 24 hours, the market may test the 0.912–0.915 support zone, with a potential bounce or breakdown depending on order flow. Investors should monitor volume and RSI for signs of exhaustion or renewed bullish momentum.
