Opening Summary

TRON/Yen (TRXJPY) opened at 45.24 at 12:00 ET–1, touched a high of 46.13, and closed at 46.03 at 12:00 ET. Total volume traded over the 24-hour period was approximately 102,841.89, with notional turnover of around ¥4,641,549. The pair showed a clear bullish bias amid rising volatility and volume, particularly in the late-night and early-morning hours.

Structure & Formations

The price action displayed several key bullish signals, including a strong Bullish Engulfing pattern around 00:15 ET and a Bullish Harami at 05:00 ET. These patterns suggest a reversal from bearish to bullish momentum. Key support levels were observed at 45.62–45.76 and 45.47–45.51, with resistance at 45.90–46.07 being tested multiple times.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the price stayed above the 20-period and 50-period moving averages for most of the session, confirming a bullish bias. On the daily timeframe, the 50-period MA is just below 45.90, while the 200-period MA sits around 45.60–45.70, suggesting a moderate upward trend. The 100-period MA has been acting as a dynamic support in recent days.

MACD & RSI

The MACD line remained positive for most of the session, with the histogram showing increasing bullish momentum in the early hours of the morning. RSI reached 65 by 06:00 ET and remained in overbought territory until around 10:00 ET, indicating continued buyer interest. A pullback to 57–58 in the late morning may signal a short-term consolidation phase before another push higher.

Bollinger Bands & Volatility

Volatility spiked in the early morning and late evening hours, causing the Bollinger Bands to widen significantly. The price frequently touched the upper band, especially between 02:00 and 04:00 ET, indicating strong buying pressure. During the consolidation phase, the price fell back toward the middle band, suggesting a possible retesting of key resistance before a breakout.

Volume & Turnover

Volume spiked during the late-night and early-morning hours, with a peak of 16,042.75 at 07:30 ET and another large volume spike at 08:30 ET. Notional turnover closely followed these volume surges, particularly between 00:00 and 06:00 ET. A divergence in volume occurred when price dipped from 46.03 to 45.96 but was accompanied by relatively low volume, suggesting possible exhaustion.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci retracements to the key 15-minute swing from 45.24 to 46.13, the 38.2% level at 45.87 and the 61.8% level at 45.74 were both tested and held. On the daily chart, the 61.8% retracement from a recent high aligns closely with the current consolidation zone, suggesting a potential pause before the next leg higher.

Backtest Hypothesis

The backtested “Bullish Engulfing - 24 h” strategy performed in line with the observed technicals, with a total return of 2.0% and an annualized return of 3.5%. The strategy entered long positions at the close when a Bullish Engulfing pattern formed, and exited after exactly one trading day. The recent 15-minute chart showed multiple Bullish Engulfing setups that align with this strategy, particularly at 00:15 and 08:30 ET. While the drawdown of 3.2% remains moderate, the Sharpe ratio of 0.57 suggests the strategy offers reasonable risk-adjusted returns for traders willing to capitalize on short-term bullish reversals.
