Resolv/Tether (RESOLVUSDT) opened at $0.0720 on October 13, 2025, at 12:00 ET, reached a high of $0.0759, and fell to an intraday low of $0.0665 before closing at $0.0697 on October 14.

The price action on the 15-minute chart shows a sharp bearish breakdown after failing to hold the $0.0700 level, with a significant volume surge between 03:45 and 07:00 ET confirming the bearish bias. A long lower shadow at the 05:45–06:00 ET candle indicated a brief rebound attempt but failed to close above the 50-period moving average. The 20-period moving average crossed below the 50-period line, signaling a shift in trend.

On the daily chart, the 200-period moving average is at $0.0730, suggesting a key long-term resistance level. The 50-period MA is now bearish with a negative slope, reinforcing the near-term downtrend. The 100-period MA currently at $0.0728 also aligns with resistance. MACD turned negative with bearish divergence in momentum. RSI has fallen below 30 into oversold territory, but without a reversal confirmation, it does not guarantee a bounce.

Bollinger Bands widened during the sell-off, with prices near the lower band and volatility expected to contract as the price consolidates. A bearish engulfing pattern formed at $0.0700, and a doji at $0.0690 suggests a potential pause in the decline. A 38.2% Fibonacci retracement from the high of $0.0759 to the low of $0.0665 is at $0.0731, aligning with the 100-period moving average as a potential resistance.

Backtest Hypothesis: A potential strategy could involve identifying RSI oversold levels (<30), where price may bounce off Fibonacci support levels, particularly the 38.2% and 61.8% levels, if confirmed by reversal candlestick patterns or a move above the 20-period moving average. A basic setup would be to enter long on a close above $0.0700 with a stop-loss below $0.0690 and a target at $0.0715 (a 1.3% move from entry). This would align with the RSI, MACD, and Fibonacci retracement indicators used in the analysis. A backtest using these levels on RESOLVUSDT from 2022 to 2025 could reveal the viability of this momentum-based approach.
