Structure & Formations

Price action revealed a breakdown below 20.93–20.94, which had previously acted as a minor support. A 15-minute bearish engulfing pattern formed at 2025-09-04 18:30, confirming the bearish bias. A doji appeared at 2025-09-05 02:45, signaling exhaustion in the downward move. Key resistances are located at 20.95–20.97, with supports forming at 20.91 and 20.88.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages both trended downward, with price closing below both lines. On the daily timeframe, the 50, 100, and 200-period MAs all show a flattening trend, with no clear direction.

MACD & RSI

The MACD line dipped below the signal line mid-morning and remained negative for the remainder of the session, indicating bearish momentum. RSI hit oversold levels near 25 as price approached 20.88, hinting at potential short-term bounce. However, without a strong reversal candle, bearish continuation remains likely.

Bollinger Bands

Price spent much of the day near the lower band, indicating bearish pressure. A brief expansion of the bands occurred after 2025-09-04 18:30, followed by a contraction as volatility subsided. Price remains within a tight range near the lower band, suggesting a continuation setup unless buyers enter above 20.91.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked sharply in the late evening, with the largest 15-minute candle showing 10,396.0 volume at 2025-09-05 03:45. Notional turnover increased in tandem, confirming the strength of the sell-off. However, volume has since declined, indicating waning conviction in the downward move.

Fibonacci Retracements

A 38.2% retracement level at 20.91 and a 61.8% level at 20.88 were tested late in the session. Price found temporary support at 20.88 but failed to retrace above the 61.8% level, indicating bearish bias remains intact.

Backtest Hypothesis

A potential backtesting strategy could target short positions on breakouts below key support levels, particularly after confirmation by volume and candlestick patterns such as bearish engulfers or dojis. Traders may look to enter near 20.88–20.91 with stops placed above 20.95–20.97. A target of 20.85 could be used for a stop-loss near 20.80. This setup would benefit from a bearish momentum divergence in the RSI and MACD, especially after a consolidation phase near the lower Bollinger band.
