A support level appears to have formed around $0.2590, with price bouncing off this level a couple of times during the session. A notable bearish engulfing pattern was visible during the early morning hours on 2025-11-13, suggesting a temporary reversal, but it was quickly absorbed by the bullish momentum later in the session. A doji formed near $0.2600, hinting at indecision in the market before the upward move resumed.

Moving Averages and Momentum

On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period MA crossed above the 50-period MA, confirming a short-term bullish bias. On the daily chart, the 50-period MA is below the 100-period and 200-period MAs, indicating a mixed signal between shorter and longer-term trends. The MACD histogram showed positive divergence during the late hours, while RSI oscillated between 50 and 60, suggesting that momentum was building but not yet reaching overbought territory.

Volatility and Bollinger Band Activity

Bollinger Bands saw a significant expansion after 19:00 ET, with the asset price trading near the upper band for several hours. This suggests heightened volatility and bullish momentum. The narrow band contraction earlier in the session (around 03:00–05:00 ET) indicated a period of consolidation before the breakout. Price stayed within the bands for most of the session, but the upper band was breached at key resistance levels during the evening.

Volume and Turnover Insights

Volume increased steadily from the 17:00 ET timeframe and peaked around 02:15 ET with a volume of 15,752,665.8. This coincided with the asset reaching a high of $0.2710, suggesting strong buyer participation during the upward move. Notional turnover also saw a sharp increase during the same period, aligning with the price action and confirming the breakout. No significant divergence between volume and price was observed, reinforcing the bullish momentum.

Fibonacci and Retracement Analysis

Fibonacci retracement levels applied to the recent swing from $0.2531 to $0.2710 showed the 61.8% level at $0.2618, which coincided with a minor pullback around 05:45 ET. The 38.2% retracement level at $0.2647 was tested but not broken during the upward leg of the move. On the 15-minute chart, a similar pattern showed a key support level forming around $0.2593, which acted as a floor for several hours.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtesting strategy is based on a standard RSI-based mean-reversion model, using a 14-period RSI to identify overbought and oversold conditions. The results align with the observed RSI behavior in the XPLUSDT pair, which showed no overbought signals but hovered near neutral levels for much of the 24-hour window. The strategy includes a 5% take-profit and stop-loss, ensuring controlled risk per trade. Given the moderate RSI readings and strong volume confirmation, the pair appears well-suited for this type of strategy. Adjustments in RSI thresholds or tighter stop levels could further refine performance.
