. This overbought level may trigger short-term profit-taking or a reversal.
Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands expanded sharply between 22:30 ET and 03:30 ET, indicating heightened volatility. Price traded near the upper band during the peak at $6.15e-06 and tested the lower band at $5.86e-06. The current price is approaching the mid-band, suggesting a possible consolidation phase after the volatile 24-hour period.
Volume & Turnover
Volume spiked at $6.13e-06, with a 15-minute volume of 3.12271580618e+11 tokens. This suggests strong selling pressure at that level. Turnover exceeded $1.08 billion during the peak sell-off at 02:45 ET. Divergence between price and volume occurred after 06:00 ET, with price moving higher while volume declined, suggesting weakening bullish momentum.
Fibonacci Retracements
Fibonacci levels from the swing high at $6.15e-06 and low at $5.86e-06 indicate key support at 61.8% ($5.98e-06), which was briefly tested. The 38.2% level at $6.05e-06 acted as a minor resistance during the late afternoon. A breakdown below $5.98e-06 could target the next 23.6% level at $6.00e-06.
Backtest Hypothesis
To evaluate a potential trading strategy, we propose using RSI(14) as an overbought trigger (crossover above 70) and a fixed price target of $5.98e-06 for exits. Given the recent overbought readings at $6.15e-06 and the bearish momentum confirmed by RSI divergence and MACD crossover, this setup could offer a high-probability trade. Positions would close when price hits the target or after a 90-day holding period. Binance OHLCV data will be used to test this hypothesis, using a 100% equity-per-trade approach.
