Volatility and Momentum

Volume and Turnover
Volume spiked to over 1.6 million units at 02:45 AM ET, coinciding with a sharp drop in price. This volume was accompanied by a large notional turnover of $122,489.22, confirming the bearish move. Subsequent volume was mixed, with price consolidating near 0.0747–0.0749.
Fibonacci and Retracement Levels
Fibonacci levels applied to the 5-minute chart show 0.0747 as the 38.2% retracement of the recent high. A move above 0.075 would test the 50% level at 0.0753, offering a potential short-term floor for buyers to defend.
The price may test for a bounce off the 0.0744–0.0747 range in the next 24 hours. Investors should remain cautious as the bearish bias remains intact, and a failure to hold above 0.0747 could lead to further downside.
