Structure & Formations
Price action on the 5-minute chart displayed a clear bearish consolidation from 17:00 to 21:00 ET, followed by a bullish reversal from 21:15 ET onward. A key resistance level appeared at 1.716e-05, which was tested and broken during the late surge. Notable bullish patterns included a morning star-like formation near 1.699e-05 and a bullish engulfing pattern between 16:30 and 16:45 ET.
Moving Averages
On the 5-minute chart, price crossed above the 20-period and 50-period moving averages in the final hour of the session, indicating a potential short-term bullish momentum shift. On the daily chart, Solv/BNB remains above the 200-period MA, but is consolidating between the 50 and 100-period MAs, suggesting a period of indecision.
MACD & RSI
The MACD crossed into positive territory late in the session, aligning with the price breakout.
RSI reached overbought territory (above 70) at 1.746e-05, suggesting a potential pullback may be due unless momentum remains strong.
Bollinger Bands
Volatility expanded significantly in the late morning, with Bollinger Bands widening and price pushing above the upper band for the first time since mid-day. This indicates a period of high volatility and potential continuation of the bullish trend if support at 1.725e-05 holds.
Volume & Turnover
The highest volume occurred during the 16:45–17:00 ET 5-minute interval, with 38,656 units traded as price pushed to the high of the session. Notional turnover also peaked during this period, confirming bullish conviction. However, price and volume diverged earlier in the session, as price dipped lower without a corresponding rise in volume, suggesting weak bearish follow-through.
Fibonacci Retracements
Fibonacci levels from the 1.689e-05 low to the 1.746e-05 high identified a 61.8% retracement at 1.719e-05, which acted as a key support level during the mid-session consolidation. The 1.725e-05 level may now serve as a short-term resistance ahead of the 1.746e-05 high.
Price appears to be testing the upper bounds of a recent bullish trend, and if it holds above 1.725e-05, further upside toward the 1.746e-05 level could be possible in the next 24 hours. However, traders should be cautious of an overbought RSI and potential pullback if the breakout lacks follow-through volume.
