Structure & Formations

The price action formed a bearish continuation pattern from 4.333 to 4.327, with a long upper wick at 4.333 indicating rejection of that level. A key support at 4.326 held through the session, preventing a break below, but the failure to retest 4.333 suggests weakening bullish momentum.

No major engulfing or doji patterns were observed, but a cluster of small-bodied candles in the last 4 hours suggests indecision.

Moving Averages

On the 5-minute chart, the price remains below both the 20-period (4.329) and 50-period (4.330) moving averages, indicating bearish bias. The daily chart shows the price below the 50-period (4.333), 100-period (4.334), and 200-period (4.335) averages, reinforcing a longer-term downtrend.

MACD & RSI

The MACD remained in negative territory with a narrowing histogram, suggesting weakening bearish momentum. RSI dropped from overbought levels to 55, hinting at a potential oversold condition. However, a bearish divergence in RSI suggests that price may continue lower even if RSI stabilizes.

Bollinger Bands

The price has spent the last 4 hours trading near the lower band of the Bollinger Bands, indicating low volatility and possible oversold conditions. The bands have widened slightly from earlier in the day, suggesting a build-up of potential volatility.

Volume & Turnover

Volume picked up significantly in the last 4 hours, with the largest single 5-minute volume spike occurring at 10:15 ET (volume: 10,111.0). Price and turnover diverged slightly in that period, as price dropped while turnover increased. The increased volume in the lower end of the range provides some confirmation for a possible support hold at 4.326.

Fibonacci Retracements

The 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level from the recent swing high (4.335) to the swing low (4.326) aligns with the 4.328 level, which the price appears to have failed to retest. This suggests a potential target toward the 4.326 level for further downside. The 38.2% level sits at 4.331, which also failed to hold, reinforcing bearish sentiment.

The market may continue to test the 4.326 level for support in the next 24 hours, with the potential for a short-term rebound if that level holds. Investors should be cautious of the possibility of a breakdown below this level, which could trigger further downside toward 4.324.
