Over the 24-hour period, total volume traded was 185,751.0, and total turnover was 797,347.00 (notional). The pair exhibited a bullish bias with increasing volatility and strong volume during key price moves.

Structurally, the pair formed a bullish flag between 4.373 and 4.387, suggesting a continuation of the upward trend. A hanging man pattern appeared around 4.368, indicating a potential pullback. Key support levels emerged at 4.368, 4.361, and 4.356, while resistance was tested at 4.376, 4.383, and 4.397. The consolidation between 4.373 and 4.387 appears to signal a possible breakout in the near term.

The 20-period moving average on the 15-minute chart is at 4.374, rising in tandem with the 50-period average at 4.378, confirming a short-term bullish bias. On the daily chart, the 50-period average is near 4.368, and the 200-period is at 4.357, indicating the price remains above critical long-term support.

MACD lines crossed into positive territory around 18:00 ET, with a narrowing histogram suggesting decelerating bullish momentum. RSI rose to 68 at the peak and retracted to 62, hovering near overbought levels. Bollinger Bands expanded from 4.366 to 4.397, with price closing near the upper band, signaling elevated volatility and potential for a short-term correction.

Fibonacci retracement levels highlighted key pullbacks, with 61.8% at 4.373 and 38.2% at 4.381 acting as consolidation zones. The price bounced off the 61.8% level multiple times, suggesting strong buyer interest in that area. Volume and turnover aligned with the price action, with no significant divergence observed. The highest volume was recorded between 4.371 and 4.383, confirming the strength of the recent rally.

The pair appears poised for a continuation of the upward trend, but with signs of short-term exhaustion. A test of the 4.397 high may occur if buyers remain aggressive, while a retest of 4.368–4.373 could provide a short-term correction. Investors should monitor the 4.383–4.390 range for a potential breakout confirmation. However, volatility remains high, and sharp intraday reversals are possible.

Backtest Hypothesis
The strategy of selling USDC/Romanian Leu when RSI indicates overbought conditions aligns with the observed 24-hour pattern, where RSI hovered near 68–69 in the late afternoon, suggesting possible overvaluation. If executed at that time, the sell signal would have captured a peak near 4.383–4.388. However, the subsequent rally to 4.397 suggests that RSI overbought levels did not fully align with price action, indicating the need for additional confirmation from other indicators such as MACD or Bollinger Bands. Given the pair’s strong volume and upward bias, a purely RSI-driven strategy may miss continuation opportunities unless paired with filters like trendline breaks or moving average crossovers.
