Terra Classic/Tether (LUNCUSDT) opened at 4.43e-5 on January 5 at 12:00 ET and closed at 4.671e-5 on January 6 at 12:00 ET, reaching a 24-hour high of 4.73e-5 and a low of 4.396e-5. Total 24-hour volume was approximately 5.4999979999999995e+12, with notional turnover of around 248,137.66.
Structure & Formations
The price action featured multiple bullish engulfing patterns around the 4.50e-5 level, confirming a breakout from a key resistance cluster. A doji formed briefly at 4.55e-5, suggesting indecision among traders, but the formation was followed by a strong continuation to the upside. The 4.50e-5 level acted as strong support twice and is now a probable pivot point for near-term direction.
Moving Averages
On the 5-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages trended upward through the session, with the price consistently above both. On the daily timeframe, while 50 and 100-period averages are not included here, the 200-day line is likely a critical long-term support level near 4.3e-5.
MACD & RSI
The MACD showed a positive divergence with price, reinforcing the strength of the rally. RSI crossed into overbought territory above 70 at the close, which could signal near-term profit-taking or consolidation. However, volume remained robust during the climb, offering some support to the bullish narrative.
Bollinger Bands
Volatility expanded significantly throughout the day, with the bands widening and the price often trading near or above the upper band. This expansion typically precedes a potential reversal or continuation, depending on the strength of the momentum. The widening bands also suggest increased market participation and uncertainty.
Volume & Turnover
Volume spiked sharply during the breakout phase, particularly between 11:45 and 12:00 ET on January 6, as the price pushed above 4.70e-5. Notional turnover increased in tandem, confirming the move rather than indicating a divergence. The sustained volume during the rally suggests strong conviction, though traders should monitor any divergence in the coming sessions.
Fibonacci Retracements
The 61.8% Fibonacci level at 4.50e-5 was tested twice during the session before a final push higher, suggesting that the bullish trend has strong internal momentum. The 38.2% level at 4.60e-5 was briefly challenged but not rejected, indicating that the market is favoring continuation. A breakdown below 4.45e-5 could trigger a test of the 50% retracement at 4.465e-5.
The price may continue to test overbought RSI levels in the near term, with a potential pullback to 4.55e-5 expected if volume begins to taper. Traders should remain cautious of sharp reversals following extended bullish runs, especially if volume shows signs of peaking.
