Phoenix/Bitcoin (PHBBTC) opened at 4.72e-06 on October 7 at 12:00 ET and closed at 4.74e-06 by 12:00 ET on October 8, with a high of 4.91e-06 and a low of 4.68e-06. Total volume for the 24-hour period was 41,648.0, and notional turnover amounted to approximately 0.193 BTC (based on average price of 4.78e-06).

The 24-hour candlestick pattern shows a tight consolidation phase followed by an intraday bullish breakout and a subsequent pullback. Price action appears to be bound between the 4.74e-06 support and the 4.8e-06 resistance, with several failed attempts to break out of the range. A morning engulfing pattern appears at 08:30–08:45 ET, followed by a bullish harami at 10:30–10:45 ET, suggesting short-term reversal potential. A long-legged doji at 12:45–01:00 ET indicates indecision among traders as the market approaches mid-day.

Moving averages on the 15-minute chart show the price oscillating between the 20-period and 50-period lines, with the 50-period line slowly ascending from 4.73e-06 to 4.74e-06. The 20-period line is slightly above the 50-period line in the latter half of the period, indicating a potential short-term bullish crossover. For the daily chart, the 50-day average is at 4.75e-06, while the 200-day average remains flat around 4.73e-06, suggesting a neutral bias in the medium-term.

MACD (12,26,9) turned positive in the late afternoon, with a small histogram forming around 16:00–18:00 ET before flattening out. RSI shows overbought conditions at 75–80 in the late trading session, with a pullback to mid-50s by market close. Bollinger Bands remain narrow, suggesting a low volatility environment. Price stayed within the upper and lower bands most of the day, with a brief breach at 14:30 ET when the price reached 4.91e-06, though it quickly retracted.

Volume and turnover spiked during key price movements, particularly at 14:30 ET with a volume of 1988.9 and at 08:30–08:45 ET with a volume of 355.4. However, the price failed to follow through on these spikes, indicating weak conviction. Turnover was generally proportional to volume, with no significant divergences noted.

Fibonacci retracements on the 15-minute chart from the 4.68e-06 low to 4.91e-06 high show the price finding support at the 61.8% level (4.76e-06) and resistance at the 38.2% level (4.8e-06). On the daily chart, the 61.8% Fibonacci level from a recent downtrend aligns with the 4.75e-06–4.76e-06 range, which appears to hold as a key support zone.

The backtest hypothesis involves a breakout strategy using the 20-period and 50-period moving averages. When the 20-period line crosses above the 50-period line and RSI is above 50, the strategy suggests a long entry. A stop loss is placed below the recent low of the candle where the crossover occurred, and a take profit is set at the nearest Fibonacci resistance level. This approach aims to capture short-term bullish momentum driven by consolidation and reversal patterns seen in the data. It aligns with the recent 15-minute chart behavior and could be refined using tighter stop levels or volatility-based scaling to better manage risk.
