Structure & Formations
The price of Scroll faced a key resistance cluster around $0.401–0.405, which failed to hold as bears pushed the price down late in the session. A bearish engulfing pattern formed at the $0.405–0.401 level, confirming a shift in sentiment. A doji candle emerged around $0.397–0.398, suggesting indecision before the sharp sell-off. A clear support level appears forming at $0.381–0.385, which may be tested again.
Moving Averages
On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages both crossed below key resistance levels during the sell-off, confirming the bearish bias. On the daily chart, the 50-period MA sits above the 200-period MA, indicating intermediate-term bearish momentum.
MACD & RSI
The 15-minute MACD turned sharply negative as selling pressure intensified after midnight. RSI dropped below 30 in the early hours of the session, signaling oversold conditions, but without a strong reversal candle, momentum may remain weak.
Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands expanded significantly after 01:00 ET, reflecting the heightened volatility of the sell-off. Price briefly tested the upper band before collapsing toward the lower end, suggesting a breakdown in volatility.
Volume & Turnover
Volume spiked to $904k in the 00:30–00:45 ET window, followed by a sustained drop-off as price fell. The notional value of trades also dropped sharply during the lower part of the session, suggesting reduced conviction in the move lower. Divergence between price and turnover suggests weak follow-through in the bearish move.
Fibonacci Retracements
The 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the recent 15-minute move from $0.404 to $0.375 aligns with the $0.388 level, which appears to have acted as a temporary floor. The 38.2% retracement sits at $0.395 and may offer limited support on a rebound.
Scroll faces immediate support at $0.381 and key resistance at $0.401. A short-covering bounce into $0.395–0.397 may occur, but bears appear to have the upper hand. Traders should watch for a break below $0.381 or a rejection above $0.401 for clearer directional bias. Volatility remains high, and unexpected moves could disrupt short-term positioning.
