Structure and Formations

Price action from 227.8 to 226.62 on the 5-minute chart formed a potential bullish reversal pattern. A notable doji appeared at 227.8, suggesting indecision near critical support. The prior bearish move broke below the 229.6 level but failed to sustain momentum, hinting at a potential retest of the 227.8–228.0 range as a key support cluster.

Moving Averages and Momentum

On the 5-minute chart, price remains above the 20 and 50-period moving averages, indicating short-term bullish bias. The 20-period MA sits at approximately 229.0, and the 50-period at around 228.7. The MACD line has crossed below the signal line, suggesting bearish momentum but with a narrowing gap indicating potential exhaustion. RSI fluctuated between 40 and 60, with no clear overbought or oversold conditions, but recent divergence in RSI and price on the 5-minute chart points to potential reversal dynamics.

Volatility and Bollinger Bands

Volatility, as measured by Bollinger Bands, contracted during the overnight hours (ET), tightening around the 228.0–228.5 range before a sharp breakout. A brief expansion occurred following the 230.0–231.0 rally, with price closing near the upper band, suggesting possible overbought conditions at the top of the move.

The contraction and expansion pattern is typical ahead of a directional move, with the current price hovering near the mid-band.

Volume and Turnover Analysis

Volume spiked during key price moves, notably the 227.6–226.62 decline and the 230.0–231.81 rally. The largest single 5-minute volume print was 70,481.55 during a consolidation phase around 228.0–228.5, indicating accumulation or distribution. Turnover mirrored volume spikes, with the largest turnover occurring at 229.0–229.5. A divergence between volume and price was observed during the 226.62–227.34 recovery, where volume was relatively low, suggesting a weaker reversal attempt.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci retracements to the recent 226.62–232.8 swing, the 229.34 close aligns with the 61.8% level, a key psychological and technical level. A retest of the 50% retracement at 229.71 could offer further directional clues. On the daily chart, the 61.8% level near 230.15 appears to be a short-term resistance if the 229.34 close holds.

Price appears to be consolidating in a tight range near the 229.34–229.71 level, with key Fibonacci and moving average support just below. A break above 229.71 could target the 230.5–231.81 range, while a drop below 228.88 could expose 227.8 support. Investors may want to watch for a breakout or breakdown in the next 24 hours, but risk remains skewed to the upside with the current momentum structure.
