Structure & Formations

Price formed multiple bullish and bearish candlestick patterns during the session. A strong bullish engulfing pattern emerged around 19:30–20:00 ET, pushing the price above $6.55. However, a bearish harami followed near $6.60–6.57, signaling potential exhaustion. A doji formed at $6.55 around 21:30 ET, hinting at indecision. On the bearish side, a bearish dark cloud cover developed between 22:00–23:00 ET as the price pulled back toward $6.50. Key support levels were identified around $6.10 and $6.02, both tested during the late ET hours.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages crossed over multiple times, suggesting a choppy and trending environment. Price frequently tested the 20 MA as a dynamic support/resistance level, especially around 21:00–22:00 ET. On the daily chart, the 50-period and 200-period moving averages remain well-separated, with no clear convergence or divergence to suggest a trend reversal.

MACD & RSI

The MACD histogram showed a strong bearish divergence following the peak at $6.60, with the line crossing below the signal line, suggesting a probable pullback. The RSI rose to 88 at the high of $6.60, indicating overbought conditions, and dropped below 40 during the late ET sell-off, pointing to oversold territory but without a strong reversal pattern to confirm a bounce. This suggests a possible correction in the near term.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility spiked during the session, with Bollinger Bands expanding from a narrow range of ~$0.05 to a wide range of ~$0.60. Price spent a significant portion of the session outside the upper band, especially after 19:00 ET. As the price pulled back, it re-entered the band around $6.45–6.30 by 05:00 ET. The recent contraction suggests a potential reversal may be forming, though it remains to be seen whether bulls can reclaim the upper band.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked during the upward move between 18:00–19:30 ET, with notional turnover reaching $3.4M during the 19:30 candle. However, the subsequent pullback between 22:00–23:30 ET saw a sharp drop in volume, indicating bearish exhaustion. Later, during the $6.10–6.02 leg, volume picked up again, suggesting accumulation by short-term traders. A divergence between price and volume in the final hours implies uncertainty in conviction, which could lead to a choppy continuation.

Fibonacci Retracements

Key Fibonacci levels were drawn from the high of $6.60 to the low of $6.02, yielding a 61.8% retracement at $6.33 and a 38.2% retracement at $6.44. The price tested both levels during the 24-hour period. The 61.8% level held briefly as support at $6.33 around 02:00 ET, while the 38.2% level acted as resistance at $6.44. These levels may serve as pivotal points for the next 24 hours, especially if the market seeks a directional bias.

Backtest Hypothesis

To build an accurate back-test, we propose a short-selling strategy based on RSI levels and Fibonacci retracement levels identified in the above analysis. A sell signal would be triggered when RSI exceeds 70, indicating overbought conditions. A fixed stop-loss would be placed at the 38.2% Fibonacci level, while a fixed take-profit would be set at the 61.8% level or at a fixed time horizon of 4 hours.

The strategy would use a 100% capital allocation per signal to maximize exposure on strong overbought momentum shifts. Exit rules would include either a close below 50 on the RSI or the fixed time horizon, whichever comes first. Given the recent overbought readings and divergence in the MACD, this approach could capture short-term profits from expected corrections. The back-test would evaluate performance from 2022-01-01 to 2025-10-14, providing insight into its effectiveness in this highly volatile market.
