The model showed that trading volumes surged 284% above the moving average during the breakout phase before declining as prices settled back toward $2.20.

Overall 24-hour volumes ran 31% below weekly averages despite the intraday volatility, indicating selective rather than broad-based buying interest across the session, according to the model.

- Range compression around $2.19-$2.20 establishes near-term consolidation
