Bollinger Bands expanded during the decline, with price testing the lower band at $0.0000428.

Turnover remained elevated in the 15:00–19:00 ET window, indicating increased participation.

Future Outlook and Risk

A rebound above $0.0000435 may trigger retracement attempts toward $0.0000440, but a close below $0.0000428 could accelerate the decline. Investors should monitor volume confirmation and watch for a bullish reversal candle near key support. As always, sharp volatility remains a risk for the next 24 hours.
