Structure & Formations

The 15-minute chart reveals a clear bullish breakout after 03:45 ET, with a strong engulfing pattern at 0.2531–0.2566. Following this, a bearish engulfing pattern at 06:15 ET and a doji at 08:00 ET signaled hesitation and possible retracement. Key support levels at 0.248, 0.245, and 0.242 were repeatedly tested, with the last 15-minute close at 0.2513 suggesting a temporary balance.

Moving Averages

On the 15-minute chart, the 20 SMA and 50 SMA crossed bullish between 03:15 ET and 04:00 ET, confirming the strength of the upward trend. However, by 06:15 ET, the 20 SMA started to cross below the 50 SMA, indicating a bearish divergence. On the daily chart, the 50 and 200 SMA appear to be converging, with the price currently trading above both, supporting the idea of a medium-term bullish trend.

MACD & RSI

MACD turned bullish at 03:30 ET, with the histogram expanding positively until 05:15 ET, before starting to contract. RSI hit an overbought level at 0.2632, peaking at 70. This suggests a high probability of a retracement in the near term. However, as of 09:00 ET, RSI has dropped to the mid-50s, indicating neutral momentum. The pair appears to be in a rebalancing phase, which could lead to a continuation or reversal.

Bollinger Bands

Bollinger Bands contracted between 03:45 ET and 05:00 ET, followed by a sharp expansion, confirming increased volatility. YGGUSDT closed the 24-hour period near the middle band, suggesting a neutral position with potential for a breakout in either direction. The upper band reached 0.2632, while the lower band was at 0.2408, with the price spending most of the day between the upper and middle bands.

Volume & Turnover

Volume surged during the bullish phase, with the highest 15-minute volume of 7,282,990.70 at 05:15 ET. This aligns with the highest notional turnover of $1,907,393 at the same time. However, after 07:00 ET, volume started to decline, which could indicate exhaustion among buyers. A notable volume divergence appeared after 08:00 ET, with the price rising on decreasing volume, a potential bearish sign.

Fibonacci Retracements

Applying Fibonacci to the major swing from 0.2324 to 0.269, the 38.2% level at 0.252 and 61.8% at 0.247 appear to have acted as key support zones. The price held above 0.248 after 07:45 ET, indicating that sellers are still active at that level. On the 15-minute chart, the 0.2535 and 0.248 levels have been tested multiple times, reinforcing their importance.

Backtest Hypothesis

Given the technical setup—particularly the engulfing patterns, overbought RSI, and volume divergence—it is hypothesized that a short-term countertrend strategy could be viable in the next 24 hours. A potential backtest strategy might involve selling on overbought RSI levels above 60 and shorting on bearish divergences in volume. A stop loss near 0.2531 and a target at 0.245–0.242 would align with Fibonacci and support levels. This approach would require close monitoring of the 50 and 200 SMA convergence and a shift in momentum as confirmed by the MACD.
