Structure & Formations

The 15-minute chart shows a bearish trend in the early hours, followed by a bullish reversal in the late afternoon and evening. A notable bullish engulfing pattern emerged around 0.2346, which coincided with a 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level from the 0.2357 high to 0.2280 low. The pattern suggests short-term buyers stepping in. Key support appears at 0.2311 (50% retracement) and 0.2293 (daily low). Resistance is likely at 0.2357 and potentially 0.2360 in the next 24 hours.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages crossed during the afternoon, forming a potential short-term bullish signal. The price closed above both, suggesting a continuation of the current rally. On the daily chart, the 50-period and 100-period MAs are both above the 200-period MA, indicating a longer-term bullish bias, though a pullback may be expected if the current momentum fails to hold.

MACD & RSI

The RSI on the 15-minute chart reached 73.4, signaling overbought conditions and potential for a short-term correction. The MACD crossed above the signal line early in the evening and remained bullish into the close, confirming the rally. The histogram showed a broadening positive divergence, reinforcing the strength of the recent move. However, if RSI drops below 50 in the next 24 hours, it could indicate a shift in sentiment.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility expanded significantly in the latter half of the day, with the Bollinger Bands widening to accommodate the 0.2357 high. The price closed near the upper band at 0.2346, indicating a strong move within a recent volatility expansion. A break above the 0.2357 high could trigger further gains, while a drop to the lower band at 0.2280 would suggest renewed bearish pressure.

Volume & Turnover

Volume surged in the afternoon and evening, peaking at 46,590 during the 08:45 ET candle. This was accompanied by a large notional turnover of approximately 10,927 Tether, aligning with the rally in price. There were no significant price-volume divergences during the 24-hour period, indicating confirmation of the bullish move. A sustained increase in volume above 40,000 per 15-minute candle would strengthen the case for a continuation of the rally.

Fibonacci Retracements

The key 61.8% retracement level at 0.2346 was successfully tested and held as a support/resistance pivot point. The 38.2% retracement at 0.2323 acted as a minor support level during the afternoon, and price bounced off it. A break above 0.2357 would target the 78.6% retracement at 0.2373 over the next 48 hours. A reversal below 0.2293 would test the 23.6% retracement at 0.2289 and signal a deeper correction.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtesting strategy described is a momentum-driven approach based on the convergence of RSI and MACD signals. It triggers a long position when the 15-minute RSI crosses above 50 while the MACD histogram is positive and expanding. A stop-loss is placed at the 20-period moving average, and a take-profit is set at the next Fibonacci level. Given the recent RSI overbought condition and the MACD divergence, this strategy would have entered a long at 0.2346 with a target of 0.2357 and a stop below 0.2323. The setup is consistent with the technical conditions observed, suggesting it could provide a high-probability trade for the next 24 hours.
