Market Conditions
At 12:00 ET on 2025-11-05, XUSDUSDT opened at 1.0001, peaked at 1.0002, dipped to 0.9999, and closed at 1.0001. Total volume for the 24-hour period reached 12.1 million, while notional turnover amounted to approximately 12.1 million USD (assuming 1 USD per unit of XUSDUSDT). The pair appears in a tight consolidation phase, with no significant directional bias.
Structure & Key Levels
Price remained within a very narrow range throughout the period, with resistance at 1.0002 and support at 0.9999. No clear candlestick patterns emerged due to minimal price movement. The majority of candles were near-range-bound with minimal shadows, indicating low conviction and high stability in the peg.
Moving Averages
On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages are nearly coincident, both sitting at approximately 1.0001. The 200-period daily moving average aligns with the same level, reinforcing the neutral bias. Price remains tightly aligned with the average, showing no tendency to diverge.
MACD & RSI
MACD remained near zero throughout the 24-hour period, with no significant histogram divergence. RSI hovered around 50, suggesting balanced buying and selling pressure. No overbought or oversold conditions emerged, consistent with the flat range.
Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands tightened to a width of approximately 0.0003, indicating low volatility. Price stayed within the mid-channel for most of the session, with minimal excursions to the upper and lower bands. This contraction may signal a potential breakout, but no clear trigger has emerged.
Volume & Turnover
Volume surged significantly during the overnight session (ET), peaking at over 3 million at 03:00 ET and remaining high during the morning hours. However, this did not translate into increased price movement, suggesting that most activity was likely for peg maintenance or arbitrage.
Fibonacci Retracements
Applying Fibonacci levels to the overnight swing from 1.0001 to 1.0002, the 38.2% retracement is at 1.0001 and the 61.8% retracement is also at 1.0001, aligning with the current price. This suggests a strong structural support/resistance zone at 1.0001, which price has tested multiple times during the day.
Backtest Hypothesis
The provided backtest hypothesis outlines a potential strategy based on Doji-Star patterns, which could offer insights into market indecision and trend reversals. However, due to the unavailability of Doji-Star signals for “XUSDUSDT,” this strategy cannot be applied directly. A valid ticker, such as BTCUSDT or ETHUSDT, would be required to execute this backtest successfully. Once confirmed, the strategy could include extracting all Doji-Star occurrences since 2022 and testing one-day holding periods for performance evaluation.
