ARB · 1H · DOWNTREND
Price spiked hard from the ~0.0760 base into a high around 0.1020 between July 9–11, then got slapped back with force. That rejection candle cluster near the 0.1000–0.1020 zone is clear — sellers showed up in size at the top and price has already given back to the 0.0940 area. The macro news context has zero relevance to ARB here; this is pure price action. My read is that the near-term structure is bearish — lower highs are printing off that spike top and the move down from 0.1020 looks impulsive, not corrective. I'm not chasing longs here after a 30%+ vertical move with no consolidation base beneath it. I'm waiting to see if price breaks the 0.0900 support cleanly or finds a bid there that holds with conviction before I commit to either direction.
SHORT SCENARIO
Confirmation
0.0900
Closing below 0.0900 confirms bearish continuation — that level is the first visible support from the spike base and losing it opens the path lower.
Invalidation
0.0980
Structure invalidated on a close back above 0.0980, which reclaims the lower portion of the rejection zone.
Target 1
0.0860
The congestion zone from the initial breakout launch.
Target 2
0.0820
Prior resistance-turned-support from the July 5–8 consolidation.
