Price has shown strong divergence in the last two hours of the session, with higher volume and lower prices, suggesting bearish pressure. Fibonacci retracements from the key swing high of $0.0264 to the swing low of $0.0250 indicate $0.0258 (38.2%) and $0.0255 (61.8%) as key support levels. The 61.8% level appears to be the most critical; a break below this could trigger further downside to $0.0250–$0.0245. Resistance at $0.0260–$0.0262 is expected to be a key battleground for the next 24 hours.

Backtest Hypothesis

A potential backtesting strategy could be built around support-level triggers defined as the 20-period low of the 15-minute candle, with 1-hour candles used for signal timing and entry. This approach would capture price retracements near established support levels and hold positions for 24 hours. For instance, if price breaks below the 20-period support and closes the next 1-hour candle below that level, a short entry is triggered. The stop-loss could be placed 1% above the entry point, with a target of 1–1.5% downside. This strategy aligns with the observed bearish divergence and could be tested from 2022-01-01 to assess its robustness across varying market conditions.
