The 15-minute chart reveals a complex price action pattern with multiple bullish and bearish reversals. A strong rally occurred between 18:15 and 19:15 ET (2025-10-02), pushing price from 0.1112 to 0.1146, but a bearish reversal followed as sellers re-entered the market. Notable formations include a bullish engulfing pattern at 18:45 ET and a long-legged doji at 20:45 ET, both indicating indecision after strong moves. Key support levels are emerging at 0.1105 and 0.1136, while resistance at 0.1146 appears to be testing demand.

The 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 15-minute chart currently show a bullish crossover, suggesting short-term upward bias, though this signal is weakening as the 50-period MA starts to flatten. MACD remains positive but is showing signs of flattening, indicating waning momentum. RSI oscillated between 55 and 65 during the day, showing no strong overbought or oversold conditions. Bollinger Bands show a moderate expansion during the late afternoon hours, reflecting increased volatility, with price currently trading near the mid-band, indicating a continuation phase rather than a breakout or breakdown.

Fibonacci retracement levels from the recent high at 0.1146 to the low at 0.1105 suggest key levels of 0.1131 (38.2%) and 0.1119 (61.8%) as critical psychological and liquidity points. Price has tested both 38.2% and 61.8% levels multiple times, with the 38.2% acting as support and 61.8% showing weak resistance. The daily chart, while not provided, would likely show a similar continuation pattern if the 50-period MA remains above the 200-period MA. A break above 0.1146 could target 0.1170, while a drop below 0.1105 may bring 0.1080 into play.

Backtest Hypothesis

A potential backtest strategy could involve a bullish breakout system targeting the 0.1146 resistance with a stop just below 0.1136 (the doji support level). A long entry would trigger on a close above 0.1146, with a target at 0.1160 and a stop loss at 0.1125. This setup aligns with the observed price behavior and Fibonacci structure. If the doji at 0.1136 fails to hold, a short position could be initiated with a stop above 0.1146. The MACD and RSI suggest that any breakout may lack strong momentum unless volume rises sharply, which has not been the case. This strategy would likely benefit from a combination of time-based filters (e.g., limit entry to the first 2 hours after a breakout) and volume confirmation to filter out false signals.
