Highlights

CORE/USD is up 11% at $0.0244, with price action confirming short- and medium-term bullish momentum.
Technical indicators issue mixed signals but lean bullish, with trend and momentum indicators in Buy territory and some oscillator divergence present.
Forecasted range for the next 2 to 3 days is $0.0231 to $0.0257, with a 70% probability of an upward move and key support at $0.0221.

Technical momentum mixed as bullish bias faces oscillator divergence

On the technical front, CORE/USD is trading above both its MA-20 ($0.0223) and MA-50 ($0.0221) on the hourly chart, while remaining below the longer-term MA-200 at $0.0329. The Ichimoku Kijun at $0.0221 serves as immediate support. Among momentum indicators, MACD and ADX currently print Buy, with RSI at 58.38, also signaling Buy. CCI sides with a bullish bias, though Stochastic RSI suggests Sell, highlighting divergence among oscillators. Bull/Bear Power indicates intraday buyer dominance, and the Awesome Oscillator reinforces the bullish tone.

Upside bias prevails amid expectations for near-term range trading

In the short term, CORE/USD is expected to trade between $0.0231 and $0.0257 over the next 2–3 sessions. The probability of an upward move is estimated at 70%, with a 30% chance of a downside break. The baseline scenario calls for price consolidation within this range. A breakout above $0.0257 could drive further upside, while a drop below $0.0231 may trigger renewed selling and test key support at the Kijun ($0.0221).

Anton Kharitonov, analyst at Traders Union, sees CORE/USD displaying strong intraday momentum, with price action remaining above short-term moving averages and most technical indicators signaling buyers’ control. However, longer-term resistance at the MA-200 and diverging oscillator signals warrant caution. He remains defensive, expecting consolidation between $0.0231 and $0.0257, and notes that downside risks persist if support fails. "Until CORE clears the $0.0257 level, I remain cautious — failure to hold $0.0231 opens the door for further downside."

Earlier, analysts noted that Core was consolidating under seller pressure, with volatility heightened and key resistance levels limiting upside movement. The latest technical setup signals a shift to renewed buyer dominance, making a breakout above $0.0257 pivotal for potential further gains in the coming sessions.
