bearish divergence in price and RSI followed, indicating waning momentum.

27,457,415 volume and
622,948 turnover, the highest of the session. However, the volume failed to confirm the price highs in subsequent hours, suggesting a potential

RSI hit overbought territory (70+) twice, at 0.02222 and again at 0.02215, but failed to sustain above 60 in either case. MACD showed a
positive crossover early in the session, followed by a
flattening histogram, signaling weakening bullish momentum.
Fibonacci Retracements
Applying Fibonacci to the key 0.0212–0.02442 swing, price found resistance at
0.02289 (38.2%), with a
61.8% retracement at 0.02336 acting as a potential ceiling for near-term upside.
Looking ahead, STRAXUSDT may test the 0.02222–0.02252 range for a potential breakout or retest of 0.02146–0.0215 as support. Investors should remain cautious of diverging volume patterns and overbought RSI readings, which could precede a reversal.
