Celestia surged in the early hours of October 16. TIA/USDT jumped from $0.6022 to $0.6675 in one four-hour candle, and the next candles carried it as high as $0.7233. This TIA price analysis uses closed Binance candles through 16:00 UTC.
The 04:00 UTC candle in TIA price analysis
That 04:00 UTC candle gained 10.8% on 16.9 million TIA. The median four-hour volume over the last 300 candles is 1.88 million, so this one ran at roughly nine times normal. The 08:00 candle closed at $0.6964 and the 12:00 candle at $0.6993, with a wick to $0.7233.

Two sweeps came before the jump. Candles on October 12 and 13 dipped under a recent swing low and closed back above it. The October 13 wick reached $0.5048. A buy-side sweep followed on the 08:00 candle on October 13, which poked above $0.6088 and ran to $0.6162 before it faded. Then came the October 16 push.
The move did not start there. TIA closed October 9 at $0.4729. The next daily candle opened at the same price and closed at $0.6018, a gain of about 27%.
Daily and weekly structure
On the daily chart, price now sits above its 20-day average at $0.5094, the 50-day at $0.4533 and the 200-day at $0.4516. The three lines are bunched within about 6 cents of each other. TIA traded as low as $0.3204 on September 15, so the climb above them is recent.
The January weekly swing high at $0.6257 has been taken out intraday. The weekly candle is still open, so that break is not confirmed on a close. The $0.7233 wick is the highest TIA has printed since January 1, based on Binance daily data.
Order blocks and gaps below price
The four-hour chart has stacked support under the market. A bullish fair value gap, an unfilled space left by a fast move, spans $0.6112 to $0.6560. Under it sits a smaller one from $0.5948 to $0.5988.
A bullish order block, the last opposite candle before a strong rise, spans $0.5800 to $0.6204 from the October 15 16:00 candle. Swing lows at $0.5202 on October 15 and $0.5048 on October 13 sit further down. Price has not traded back into any of these since the jump.

Two ways TIA can go from here
The constructive case needs a four-hour close above the $0.7233 high. That would put TIA into levels it has not traded in 2026. Holding above $0.6560, the top of the larger gap, keeps the move intact on shorter timeframes.
The cautious case starts with a four-hour close under $0.6112, the bottom of that gap. It would bring the smaller gap and the order block into play, and a close under $0.5800 would expose the $0.5202 swing low. Both ideas lose weight if price flips back through the other side of the $0.6560 to $0.6112 band.
TIA has more than doubled from that September 15 low. We have no lean. This TIA price analysis describes candles that already closed and is not advice to buy or sell.
