Structure & Formations
Tensor/Tether displayed a complex price structure over the 24-hour window, with multiple candlestick patterns forming. A strong bullish engulfing pattern appeared during the 21:45–22:00 ET period, as the price surged from $0.0525 to $0.0539 on high volume, confirming a breakout. Later, a bearish harami pattern emerged around 02:45–03:00 ET as the price retreated to $0.0488 on a bearish close. A series of doji candles emerged in the $0.0492–$0.0495 range, signaling indecision and potential support.
Moving Averages
The 15-minute chart showed the 20-period and 50-period moving averages converging during the late hours of the session as price approached $0.0502, suggesting short-term alignment of bullish and bearish momentum. On the daily timeframe, the 50-period MA was above the 100-period MA, indicating a slightly bullish trend, but the 200-period MA remained above the 50-period MA, suggesting long-term bearish bias. The price closed just below the 50-period MA on the daily chart, hinting at potential resistance.
MACD & RSI
The MACD line showed a strong bullish divergence during the initial rally from $0.051 to $0.0588, peaking at a histogram high of 0.0018. However, during the subsequent pullback, the histogram contracted rapidly, aligning with the bearish momentum. The RSI reached overbought territory (above 70) near the high, then declined sharply into neutral to oversold levels (below 30) by the close. A potential bearish divergence appeared between price and RSI in the final two hours, raising questions about the depth of the recent support.
Bollinger Bands
Volatility expanded significantly during the early part of the session as the price broke out of a tight band into a wide Bollinger Band range of approximately $0.0588. By the late evening, the bands had re-contracted into a narrower range of $0.0492–$0.0506, with the price hovering near the lower band in the final hours, suggesting renewed bearish pressure. The closing price fell just above the 2σ lower band, indicating the price could test critical support levels in the near future.
Volume & Turnover
Volume spiked during the initial rally, peaking at $14,604,949.1 in the 21:45–22:00 ET period, followed by a sharp decline as the price corrected. Despite the overall rally, the notional turnover was uneven, with the largest volume spikes occurring at the top and bottom of the range. This suggests a distribution phase rather than accumulation. In the final two hours, both volume and turnover declined, indicating waning momentum.
Fibonacci Retracements
Applying Fibonacci levels to the 21:45–22:00 ET swing, the price pulled back to the 61.8% retracement level at approximately $0.054 before retreating further. On the daily chart, the price tested the 38.2% retracement level at $0.0493, where it encountered resistance and consolidated for several hours. The next key support level lies at the 61.8% retracement at around $0.0488, which has already been tested and held. A break below this level may lead to further bearish extension.
Backtest Hypothesis
Given the recent price behavior and the divergence in RSI and MACD indicators, a backtesting strategy could focus on short-term mean reversion or breakout confirmation signals. Using RSI as a trigger—buying on a bearish divergence when RSI dips below 30 and selling when it recovers above 50—could provide a viable framework for a 1–3 day holding period. Additionally, combining this with a volume filter to ensure only high-volume breakouts or breakdowns are considered may enhance the strategy's accuracy. Further refinement would require access to the correct exchange-specific symbol for TNSRUSDT to run the backtest on historical data with consistent execution rules.
