Peanut the Squirrel/Bitcoin (PNUTBTC) opened at $9.3e-07 on January 13 at 12:00 ET, reaching a high of $9.6e-07 before closing at $9.5e-07 on January 14 at 12:00 ET. The 24-hour low was $9.3e-07. Total volume was 26,252.6, with a notional turnover of $0.02504784.
Structure & Formations
Price remained tightly consolidated around $9.3e-07 to $9.6e-07 throughout the day, with a key bullish engulfing pattern forming at 22:15 ET. This pattern did not lead to a sustained breakout, however, as subsequent candles showed minimal follow-through. A potential support level appears to be forming near $9.3e-07, with no strong resistance above $9.6e-07 confirmed yet.
Moving Averages
On the 5-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages are closely aligned, reflecting the range-bound nature of the market. On a daily basis, longer-term averages such as 50, 100, and 200-day lines are not yet available for this pair due to its recent listing or low liquidity.
Momentum & Volatility
The RSI hovered around the 50 level, indicating neutral momentum with neither overbought nor oversold conditions developing. Bollinger Bands reflected a tight range, with price frequently touching the lower band. This suggests potential for a breakout but also highlights the lack of strong directional bias.
Volume & Turnover
Trading volume was generally muted, with the largest spike occurring at 22:15 ET during the bullish engulfing formation. Notional turnover mirrored the volume pattern, with limited confirmation of significant accumulation or distribution. The lack of sustained volume behind price action raises questions about the strength of any potential breakout.
Fibonacci Retracements
Applying Fibonacci retracement levels to the recent 5-minute swing from $9.3e-07 to $9.6e-07, key levels lie at $9.42e-07 (38.2%) and $9.49e-07 (61.8%). Price is currently near the 61.8% level, which could offer resistance or consolidation in the near term.
The market appears poised for a breakout but lacks the momentum or volume to confirm a strong directional move. Investors may want to watch for a decisive move above $9.6e-07 or a breakdown below $9.3e-07 for confirmation of the next phase. As always, low liquidity increases the risk of sharp, volatile price swings.
