24-Hour Price Action
Pixels/Tether (PIXELUSDT) opened at 0.01035 at 12:00 ET–1 and reached a high of 0.01075 before closing at 0.00952 at 12:00 ET.
The 24-hour low was 0.00951, reflecting strong bearish sentiment. Total volume across the 24-hour window was 186,957,721.9 units, with a notional turnover of approximately $1,833,924.
Price Structure and Volatility
Price formed a broad descending channel on the 5-minute chart, breaking below a key support level near 0.01024 after a consolidation phase. Bollinger Bands expanded significantly in the latter half of the session, indicating increased volatility. A sharp decline post-20:00 ET ET-1 suggests potential distribution or profit-taking from earlier buyers.
Momentum and Indicators
RSI dipped into oversold territory (<30) near the session close, suggesting potential short-term stabilization. MACD showed a bearish divergence as prices declined while the indicator failed to make lower lows, reinforcing bearish momentum. A bearish engulfing pattern formed at the 0.01072 high, confirming a shift in sentiment.
Volume and Turnover Analysis
Volume spiked during the sharp drop, particularly between 20:00 ET and 21:30 ET, with turnover exceeding $200,000 during the largest hourly decline. Price and turnover moved in alignment during this period, confirming bearish strength. Volume remained below average in the final 6 hours, suggesting a lack of follow-through selling.
Fibonacci and Key Levels
A 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the 5-minute upward swing (0.01026–0.01072) sat near 0.01045, which was decisively broken. On the daily chart, the 0.01000 level appears to be the next critical support area.
Price may find near-term support around 0.00950–0.00960, but a break below could trigger deeper bearish extensions. Investors should remain cautious of increased short-term volatility and the risk of a continuation pattern forming below key support.
