The 24-hour high and low were $1.14e-06 and $1.11e-06, respectively. Total volume traded in the 24-hour period was 99,533.9, and notional turnover amounted to approximately $109.84.

The pair displayed a range-bound structure, with a key support at $1.11e-06 and resistance at $1.14e-06. No strong reversal patterns were observed, and the price remained within the 20- and 50-period moving averages. A minor consolidation phase is in place, with the price failing to break either the upper or lower band of the Bollinger Bands, indicating low volatility. A contraction in the bands suggests the potential for a breakout in the near term, though no directional bias has emerged yet.

Relative Strength Index (RSI) readings stayed in the 50–55 range, indicating a neutral to slightly bullish tone without entering overbought or oversold territory. MACD crossed into positive territory briefly late in the session but did not maintain its bullish signal. On-balance volume and turnover remained flat through most of the day, with one notable spike of 8,854.4 volume at $1.14e-06 during a minor price pullback. Divergences between price and volume were not observed, suggesting no strong selling or buying pressure.

Fibonacci retracement levels applied to the latest 15-minute swing identified potential support at $1.12e-06 (38.2%) and $1.11e-06 (61.8%), which have held during minor corrections. Daily retracement levels have not shifted significantly, reflecting the overall range-bound nature of the pair. The 50-period moving average is currently aligned with the 20-period, suggesting no strong trend is forming.

Backtest Hypothesis
The proposed backtest strategy relies on identifying Bullish Engulfing candlestick patterns in SXPBTC to time entry points. Given the pair’s low volatility and lack of strong directional momentum, a Bullish Engulfing pattern could signal a short-term reversal from a consolidation phase. If confirmed, an entry would be triggered at the next day’s market open, with an exit at the next day’s open as well, assuming a one-day holding period. While no such pattern was confirmed in the 24-hour data provided, the flat volume profile and range-bound price suggest that this strategy could benefit from clearer trend confirmation.
