Solv Protocol/BNB (SOLVBNB) opened at 1.512e-05 on 2025-10-13 and traded as high as 1.58e-05 before closing at 1.51e-05 on 2025-10-14. The 24-hour period saw a total trading volume of 701,512.0 and a notional turnover of approximately 10.42 (in USD equivalent, assuming average price). A bearish breakout was attempted but met resistance and failed to sustain downward momentum.

Over the last 24 hours, SOLVBNB exhibited a bearish continuation pattern, with a strong intraday breakdown followed by consolidation. Key support levels appeared near 1.502e-05 and 1.473e-05, with the price failing to push below the latter. A bearish engulfing pattern formed in the late afternoon of 2025-10-13, signaling potential exhaustion in the short-term bullish momentum. However, the absence of a follow-through in the early morning of 2025-10-14 suggests a lack of conviction in the bearish move.

The 15-minute chart showed the 20-period and 50-period moving averages both sloping downward, reinforcing a bearish bias. The RSI approached overbought territory during the afternoon but quickly retreated into neutral to oversold territory by the close. MACD showed a bearish crossover and divergence in the final hours of the period, suggesting a loss of bullish momentum. Volatility expanded after a Bollinger Band contraction, but price failed to sustain a breakout and instead consolidated within the bands, indicating a temporary lack of directional pressure.

Bollinger Bands highlighted a key volatility expansion in the late afternoon of 2025-10-13, as the price moved from the upper to the lower band in a matter of hours. This suggests a period of high uncertainty or potential reversal. Fibonacci retracements of the previous 24-hour swing identified 1.512e-05 as the 61.8% level, which the price reached and stalled at. A retest of 1.473e-05 may be possible in the coming days, especially if bearish momentum continues.

Looking ahead, the market appears to be in a transitional phase, with key support levels likely to play a role in the next 24 hours. A break below 1.473e-05 may trigger further bearish pressure, while a retest of 1.512e-05 could offer a potential short-term rebound. Traders should remain cautious of potential volatility if volume increases again, particularly after the recent consolidation.

Backtest Hypothesis

The proposed backtest strategy relies on key technical indicators and candlestick patterns identified in the analysis—namely the bearish engulfing pattern and Fibonacci retracement levels. To implement this, we recommend the following:

1. Entry Timing: The strategy should open a short position at the next day’s open after the bearish engulfing pattern is confirmed. This approach avoids whipsaw intraday movements and ensures the signal is acted upon objectively.

2. Exit at Next Support Level: For automation, the support level can be defined as the most recent swing-low pivot, calculated using a 10-day look-back window. This ensures adaptability to dynamic market conditions and avoids static thresholds.

3. Data Frequency: The backtest should use daily candles to align with the time frame of the bearish engulfing pattern and Fibonacci retracement levels.

By aligning the strategy with these parameters, we can model a systematic shorting approach that reacts to bearish momentum and key price levels. The next step is to backtest this approach from 2022-01-01 to 2025-10-14 to assess its robustness and refine risk-adjusted returns.
