RedStone/Tether (REDUSDT) opened at 0.5257 (12:00 ET – 1) and fell to a low of 0.4843 before closing at 0.4924 (12:00 ET). The pair posted a 5.8% decline over 24 hours, with total volume hitting 1.39 million and turnover at $677,512. The bearish momentum has been reinforced by declining lows and a breakdown below key Fibonacci support.

Structure & Formations

The candlestick pattern near 0.5260, particularly at 17:15 ET, formed a bearish engulfing pattern, signaling a reversal. This was followed by a steady decline that saw the price drop through the 0.50 and 0.49 levels. A doji appeared at 00:15 ET, hinting at indecision. A 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level is now in play at 0.4935—price has bounced off this area but remains under pressure.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the price is below both the 20-period and 50-period moving averages, reinforcing the bearish bias. The 50-period line is currently at ~0.4945, which may act as a short-term floor. On the daily chart, the 50/100/200 MA lines are descending, with the price below all three, indicating a prolonged downtrend in progress.

MACD & RSI

The MACD line turned negative and has remained below the signal line, with bearish divergence visible. The RSI hit an oversold reading of 28 at 09:00 ET, suggesting a possible short-term bounce. However, the lack of follow-through suggests a continuation of the bearish move may still be in play.

Bollinger Bands

Volatility expanded significantly after 22:00 ET, with the Bollinger Bands widening to 1.8% range. Price has spent much of the last 6 hours near the lower band, suggesting oversold conditions. A close above the midline (~0.4990) could signal a short-term rebound, though a sustained move back into the upper band is unlikely without a large buy-side catalyst.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked fourfold in the hours between 20:00 and 22:00 ET, coinciding with the break of the 0.50 level. Turnover also surged during this period, confirming bearish sentiment. However, since 05:00 ET, volume has declined, indicating a slowdown in selling pressure. Price and turnover are aligned in the main move lower, with no significant divergence flagged.

Fibonacci Retracements

A key 61.8% retracement level at 0.4935 was tested and partially held. Price bounced from this area but remains below the 50% level at 0.5086. The 38.2% level at 0.5145 may see a test in the event of a countertrend move, though the current trend remains firmly bearish.

Backtest Hypothesis

The described backtesting strategy involves entering a short position on a 15-minute chart when price breaks below a key Fibonacci retracement level (e.g., 61.8%) and MACD turns negative. A stop-loss is placed just above the recent swing high, with a target at the next Fibonacci level. Given the current setup, a similar short entry might be triggered below 0.4935, with a stop above 0.5015 and a target at 0.4830. The strategy would aim to capture a continuation of the bearish trend observed in the 24-hour period, with RSI indicating potential for a short rebound.
